Unique wood pattern for personal touch

The Olga Doll is handcrafted from solid beech, and each doll boasts a unique wood pattern, making every piece one-of-a-kind. This not only adds a personal touch to your collection but also ensures that no two dolls are exactly alike. The solid beech construction is polished with hard wax oil, providing a smooth finish and enhancing the natural beauty of the wood. This attention to detail in craftsmanship makes the Olga Doll a beautiful and unique addition to any musical or decorative collection.

Interactive sensor-based control

Controlling the Olga Doll is a playful experience thanks to its built-in sensors. Simply tap the doll on its head or on a surface to trigger play or pause, or tilt it left or right to adjust the volume. If needed, a firm smack can turn the doll off. This interactive approach makes using the doll intuitive and fun, adding an element of physical engagement to the musical experience. The sensor-based control system ensures that even young users or those new to technology can easily enjoy and interact with the doll.

Versatile compatibility and connectivity

The Olga Doll can be paired with the OP–1 field, OP–Z, and any other MIDI keyboard, allowing for a wide range of musical possibilities. This compatibility ensures that the doll can be easily integrated into existing setups and used alongside other equipment. The doll also features Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) signal capabilities, enabling it to communicate with other dolls and create a full choral experience. This versatility makes the Olga Doll an excellent tool for both solo performances and collaborative projects.

Customisable vocal range for dynamic performances

Each Choir Doll is designed with a specific vocal range, but users can customise this range to suit their needs. This flexibility allows for dynamic solo performances or harmonious group singing when multiple dolls are used together. The pre-programmed repertoire includes classic songs created using an algorithm based on counterpoint melody, ensuring rich and complementary musical lines. Whether performing alone or as part of a group, the Olga Doll offers a unique and captivating musical experience.
