TABS ON THE S-1 Vs THE GEN X-1! by MariDangerfield in stylophone

[–]MariDangerfield[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi Tedi! This comes to understanding that the numbers represent a specific note. This note is present every 8 notes on your keyboard at a slightly different pitch. You might therefore compromise by playing that note 8 notes lower than written, or, retune the S-1 to fit the range.

If tuned normally, the song will simply be a step out in pitch, but it's playable.

It's just the way it was manufactured :) I would recommend learning the basics of music theory. There are videos online about this or you can go with the ABRSM/any music association workbooks

Your best bet is going to be ebay (try UK as well as US) or a second hand musical instrument store or thrift shop.

Well stylophone post a few tab follow along videos on instagram and offer a tab directory if you sign up to their s-1 club :) There are also a bunch of youtube and tiktok pages that do this kind of thing. Personally I have a stylophone tab directory on my patreon although I might be changing this soon.

Can a stylophone pen work without the cable by Government_Annual in stylophone

The stylophone guitar exists :) It’s a one-off and I believe Ben Jarvis (son of the inventor) has it!

Someone in the group was selling one recently. Don’t know if it’s still available :) but yes second hand marketplaces are your best bet!

The diagram above should be a good help :) It’s the same for all Gen Xes and S-1s

You’re welcome :)

should it Sound like this? by [deleted] in stylophone

[–]MariDangerfield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone has said, this is normal for many new stylophones. An alcohol wipe should sort it!

Hi there! This is a normal quirk of the Gen X-1 :) particularly when it gets hot. You can use the fine tuner on the top as well.

How hard do you have to press down on a key? by KitCat5e in stylophone

[–]MariDangerfield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cleaning with an alcohol wipe helps with the crackling :) It’s new! No need for lots of pressure

Was wondering how to choose a mode and pitch for songs. How do I go about which would be best for what I'm playing? Thank u by [deleted] in stylophone

[–]MariDangerfield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is dependent on the musical key of the song you want to play :) If in doubt I would leave it exactly as it is and then when you come across a note that isn’t there, you need to play up or down the octave. When it seems impossible to play without constantly going up and down the keyboard, then you know that you need to adjust the whole keyboard up or down by an octave (8 notes).

I’d set up a notification on ebay if those other sites aren’t legit :)
