I aim to create future that you can express sounds through your own body. To make it realized we designed the interactions that completely synchronize sound with your body. It allows you not to be conscious of the presence of the interface to control sound. Now, you can just let your body flow along with your emotion to express sounds.
I believe we can create new entertainment never seen before with MOTION SONIC and I’m so excited to create a new culture with you!

I was excited when I tried it because it captured even slight movements of my body and I could express the comfortable pitch waving by using it. It is not same with the other modulation effects for making Lo-fi sound because it is not the cyclic pitch waving but the pitch waving in sync with natural movements such as hitting keys or picking for playing guitar.

It extends my range of emotional expression because it reflects my body movements directly in sounds. Tools for controlling sound such as pitch bend and modulation wheel usually limit my expression by taking my hand away from a keyboard. On the other hand, it enriches my expression by applying complex effects in real time that I would have to be edited and inserted later, for example, I can control several sound effects at the same time without taking my hand away from a keyboard. In addition, from the point that It is easy to setup, it is suited for a live use.
