A fascinating device has been launched in Japan, designed to help users achieve high notes with ease, making it a hit among karaoke fans. Named the Proidea High Tone Trainer by Dream Company, it promises to aid those struggling with matching the pitch of their favorite karaoke songs.
Resembling a toy, this easy-to-use device requires users to place it in their mouth and press against the palate for 3 minutes daily. Consistent use allows for hitting normally challenging high notes, effectively expanding vocal range by an octave.
The device operates on a simple principle: lifting the soft palate tissue. This adjustment affects the tissues that bulge during singing or yawning, altering the vocal tract and resonance to produce higher pitches and improve karaoke singing.
Its compact design ensures user convenience, allowing for multitasking without discomfort. Currently priced at about 22 USD (roughly 515,000 VND), it is available exclusively in Japan's domestic market.
Many are fascinated by this new device, expressing how it could significantly enhance their singing ability, making high notes more accessible and improving their favorite song performances.
Despite the enthusiasm, some remain skeptical about the device's effectiveness, doubting it can deliver the miraculous results advertised, with others commenting on its unusual appearance.
