I had experimented with MR on Pico 4 but the resolution, image stitching, and controller tracking were not ideal. Since my code-free tool kit doesn’t support Meta 3 MR yet, I am going back to native OVR development for this experiment.
Quickly put together a clamp to mount the right touch controller on the Otamatone Deluxe. The final version was created by remixing the following parts together.

The first song that I am going to try is the Happy Birthday song.
The development is so much easier than I expected. This Youtube tutorial was really helpful.
Found a template project, work right away!

First working prototype – me performing Happy Birthday!

Even me can tell it was out of tune. The first prototype was based on a scale found on the internet. I decided to made one myself. I found out there are tuning apps available on my android phone. After testing a few free ones, I eventually found Tuner – Pitched!, it was free and didn’t have the complicated free trail model. I tasted it with a piano first, the app worked very well. My scale turned out to be very different than the one I used in the first prototype, and it sounds so much better! Maybe the scale I found on the internet was made for a different Otamatone model?
Now it finally sounds like it.
Okay, now I got the basic down, kinda, I am going to challenge myself with Le Festin from Pixar’s “Ratatouille”. The Cola Original Taste cover was super inspiring and made an impression of the song on me. Here is 10 hours of it.
Music Math:
A whole note is held for 4 beats.
