teenage engineering wooden singing module choir doll with internal speaker, midi and ble compatible (ivana)
meet the choir – eight wooden dolls made to serenade you with a repertoire of choral classics as well as perform your own original compositions through midi over ble. each doll is handcrafted from solid beech and individually polished with hard wax oil. at the centre of each doll is a magical speaker module which also functions as the cpu and ble transmitter, removable and rechargeable with up to 4 hours of performance time.
melodic algorithm – the pre-programmed repertoire of classic songs have been created and performed using an algorithm based on counterpoint melody, a compositional technique that refers to the independent but complementary relationship between two or more lines of melody played at the same time.
hands on experience – to get the choir started, they need a helping hand. a sensor inside the speaker module reacts to vibration and movement, so controlling choir is a playful experience in itself. gently tap the doll on its head or on the table to trigger play or pause, or tilt the doll left or right to decrease or increase the volume accordingly. if it gets annoying, it can handle a little smack to turn it off.
the ensemble – based on cultures and characters from across the world, each doll is unique and has it's own vocal tonality. while each is given their own voice type, a single doll can customize their vocal range to sing a dynamic solo performance. when more than one member of the choir are placed together, in any combination, they communicate with each other and recognize the choral members in range, joining in a full choral experience.
midi compatibility – this is where the magic really happens. conduct your choir with OP–1 field, OP–Z, or any midi keyboard with bluetooth connectivity. or connect an ortho remote for wireless control. connecting one doll pairs the whole choir, instantly singing the notes in your composition. as with any live performance, each set will be a one-of-a-kind experience.
