George Philip Wright's Vochlea tool turns voice into instrument

Graduate shows 2016: this prototype tool by Royal College of Art graduate George Philip Wright can transform users' voices into drums, guitars and other musical instruments.
The handheld device functions as a microphone that profiles the voice of the speaker, and maps it onto instrumentation ? allowing the Vochlea to be personalised for each user.
The device transposes the melody of the user's voice onto an instrument, which is selected according to individual tonality. Currently the Vochlea includes drums, guitar, bass and brass.
A control panel can also be attached to the device to allow users to lay down multiple loops, experiment with combining various instruments and add effects and distortions.
