Does it have an aux out? Do any of the stylophones do?

The original Stylophone Beatbox had a 3.5mm headphone socket that was used to output to headphones or speakers.

I think that is what this is on this one :

Alternatively, there is an audio output giving you a better quality of your drum loops.

Dope.

Yeah I “preordered” it cuz it’s just about giving an email. For $40 it’s a no brainer even if it just sits on my shelf next to my other fun synth toy collectibles like my Monotrons and Pocket Operators. But I can make an easy sample pack with this. Just sample it into an S2400.

I bought one of these, it came today so I thought I’d post in here

My main reason for buying it was as a drum machine for my daughter to explore - she’s 4 and loves my digitakt, volca beats and po32 as well as playing the original stylophone

But - It’s bigger and better built than the stylophone, the sound choices are quite varied and all sound quite good. There’s a 2 bar looper with auto quantising and I came up with some loops I really liked pretty quickly, think I’ll get some fun loops out of it.

The bpm dial is not very precise and is a bit touchy, but for 29 quid I’m not going to complain.

Yeah I just got mine. $40 USD is not much to complain about lol. It’s mostly a toy but that’s the fun of it. I’m gonna sample the one shots and also samples some loops I make. Might even make a sample pack and post it here (free of course).

Here’s the manual sheet if anyone is interested. It’s got a decent amount of functionality. Nice crunchiness to the to the samples. Might not even be worth it feeding through some of my lofi samplers as it’s already got a nice crunch but… I probably will anyways :star_struck:
