Wakatubes Artcarmo Diatonic PP790 8 Tubes

Artcarmo PP790 Wakatubes open the door to a way of making music that is simultaneously intuitive, fun, and deeply engaging.

Wakatubes are tuned, colorful, and extremely durable tubes designed to transform any space into a small sound workshop where children, educators, and musicians explore rhythms, simple melodies, and accessible harmonies. Immediate contact with colors and sounds sparks curiosity, creating a perfect environment for active musical learning.

Each tube corresponds to a specific note within the diatonic scale, creating a clear visual language that supports musical understanding from the very first moment.

They can be used individually or together, which opens up space for group situations where coordination, attention, and listening become an essential part of the experience. Simply tap the tube on the palm of your hand, leg, the floor, or even another tube to obtain distinct sounds; this simple gesture gives rise to surprising sound combinations, especially when several people participate at the same time.

The construction in high-resistance colored plastic makes these tubes ideal for educational contexts, allowing them to withstand intensive use in classrooms or music expression workshops. The timbre is clear, stable, and very pleasant, especially when you hit the touch a few centimeters above the end - the point where the vibration creates the most balanced and clean sound. They are easy to maintain, requiring only a damp cloth and a little neutral detergent to keep them spotless.

For decades, Wakatubes have occupied a relevant place in pedagogical practices inspired by the Orff method, which values ​​the use of simple instruments to introduce the basic concepts of music. By allowing children to visually perceive the relationship between pitch, color, and length, they help them understand intervals, pulse, rhythmic patterns, and melodic structures without theoretical effort. They are also excellent tools for motor work, coordination, and attention, which makes them useful in therapeutic contexts and group activities.

The Portuguese brand Artcarmo developed this set to offer durability, precise tuning, and an accessible musical experience for everyone. For educators, the PP790s are a valuable resource for planning dynamic and participatory activities; for families, they are an opportunity to explore music in a relaxed way; for musicians, they represent a creative way to introduce alternative textures into acoustic arrangements or more experimental performances.
