Introducing the Blipblox synthesizer made for kids. Not your typical music toy, but a fully functional synthesizer that has been safety tested for children as young as 3 years old.
The Blipblox's kid-friendly design features colorful knobs and buttons plus an interactive LED light show, while the professional synthesis engine and other studio features promote music-making on a whole new level.
No need to connect a phone. No software to download. No music experience necessary.
Just turn it on and start exploring electronic music in a completely new way.
The Blipblox comes loaded with over 300 engaging melodies, so it starts playing music the moment you turn it on. The colorful controls are irresistible to kids, who can quickly learn how they are modifying the sound with each knob, button or lever. There is no wrong way to play and there are always new sounds to explore. The synchronized LED light show provides visual feedback to the music being played, and adds sensory excitement to making music.
Blipblox synthesizers are uniquely designed to be completely safe for kids. The knobs can’t be pulled off, there aren’t sharp corners or edges, and the plastic case is designed to take hard hits, drops and spills. The Blipblox is one of the only synthesizers fully certified to international toy safety standards for ages 3 and up.
The Blipblox has all of the features of a real synthesizer. To start with, there is a 5-pin MIDI input so you can connect and play it with an external keyboard, computer or drum machine. The 1/4" Audio Output jack connects to an external speaker to go loud, or to record the Blipblox into a music production system. The Blipblox features 12 unique oscillator modulation schemes that provide synthesis methods such as Pulse Width Modulation, Oscillator Sync, Detune, Frequency Modulation, and many other modulations that are unique to the Blipblox. The oscillators and the low pass filter can be modulated by two LFOs, and the Envelope Generator via a 3x3 modulation matrix. Drop the beats with the built-in drum machine. The Blipblox includes many features to help advance users navigate the sounds, such as an Performance Mode LED display.
How much is my shipping?
Shipping is automatically calculated before you submit your payment information. Simply add items to your cart and proceed to the checkout page, where you'll be offered shipping options and their prices. In the UK it's normally around £4 for order values under £150, and free above that. Shipping to mainland EU is typically between £7 and £20, depending on the shipping method and the size and weight of the order.
Do you ship to my country?
Almost certainly - the site will give you an estimate of shipping costs if you add an item to the cart and then enter your country and postcode. If you have specific requirements (such as if you prefer UPS over FedEx, for example) then let us know in advance and we'll try to work something out for you.
Shipping methods
We use a combination of Parcelforce, DPD, Royal Mail and UPS for the UK, and for international orders it's either Royal Mail, UPS, DHL or FedEx depending on where you are in the world. If you have a particular preference then try to let us know BEFORE you order so we can look into it for you. Please note that there may occasionally be additional shipping charges if you live in a remote area, depending on what surcharges are applied by the shipper. We'll get in touch to discuss this with you in such cases.
Dispatch times
For UK orders, we normally dispatch the same working day if we get the order before 15:00. If you have a really urgent situation then of course drop us an email before ordering and we'll always do our absolute best to accommodate you.
For international orders, we normally dispatch the same day if we get the order before 13:00 but again, occasionally it might be the next day before we can send it out, and sometimes FedEx or UPS may come a little earlier than scheduled which would also push an order into the next day.
Shipping times
Since April 2020 the couriers we use have suspended guarantees for shipping times, so even though we're paying them for priority services - 24-48 hours for most of the world - in practice it's often an extra day on top and sometimes it can be longer.
There is absolutely nothing we can do about this unfortunately. If you are outside the UK and it's a life-or-death situation where you absolutely MUST have that passive mult for the next day then... it may be better to find a local supplier.
Saturday shipping
If you're in the UK and you order before 15:30 on a Friday then we can send something for a Saturday delivery (NB: this applies to UK mainland addresses only). The success rate with DPD is about 95% so it's worth a punt most of the time. Please note that if you select Saturday shipping on an order placed earlier in the week, we'll wait until Friday to ship it.
Pre-orders
If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.
If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch if you have questions.
