I love the delay of the stylophone. For guitar I do the opposite connection, I connect the guitar to my amp and then the headphones output of the amp to the stylophone , and from there to a usb interface to hear it from speakers and record etc. If you have a headphone out on your amp it is easy to control the levels that way. I have a small fender mastang modeling amp that sounds great through the headphones, it has also some effects. Combining a delay from the amp (and sometimes a bit of chorus) with the stylophone delay, sounds like a multi head tape echo, just great. And the lfo can make a nice tremolo sound also

Yeah this is a great way to use it too

This video is awesome. Thanks for making it.

If you use a amplifier, touch the keyboard with one fingers and play with the stylus, it will add a wierd fuzz, it work with my bowie stylophone and my 2020 one, check that out ✌

How is the noise level on the GenX1? I would like it to have some nice background white noise to use in lo-fi music. Thanks for this awesome demo!

There is audible white noise, it definitely has a lofi characteristic, as with most cheaper analogue gear so you'll probably be happy with it for lofi music.

That is really awesome! Can you combine these effects? Why exactly is the mixer needed?

Yes, you can combine effects. And the mixer is needed to amplify the guitar signal coming into the input, if you just plug the guitar straight in it's too quiet (but still slightly audible)

@@RetroPlus I'm wondering if you could use a pedal to boost the signal before the Stylophone

Can you run the Stylophone off of other guitar pedals?

Maybe, depends on the strength of the output signal from the pedal

Excellent video! Now I don’t have to buy guitar pedals.
