I had a random thought... can I use a mattress pump to turn my melodica into a pump organ? You can! Unfortunately, my pump was pretty much shot but you get the idea. Fun stuff!
See the Melodica unboxing video here if you're curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kINs82azzc

Thanks Danny. I love prototyping. :-)
Always the thinker and planner. Great idea
I need to definitely get a new pump... but I think it will work out well once I get that figured out.
You got a nice rhythm going there Poorness pumping the whats'a ma thinggee, rhythm and melodie in one go ! that gives a hole range of new oppertunaties for free lims to engage whit other instruments !
Bazingga !!
My thoughts exactly Doug. I just need to get a new pump.
Very interesting idea Kale! It would allow you to play and sing at the same time. That’s a plus!
Thanks for checking it out BrianQ. Ironically, the air compressor was my first though but then you'd have to deal with all that noise. I suppose you could fill up the tank and just run the tank out. That might be a future video.
Worked up a sweat on this one!! Melodicas are always fun, did you know that the tube is actually there to make it easy for kids to play? Melodicas don’t come with instructions in the box like the old Hohners used to, go figure? Have you thought about trying an air compressor, you could probably play for days?
