Project XYLO Midi Device

Project XYLO

Project Xylo reimagines midi interaction through a gamified, social platform for music making. Accessible to all skill levels, it simplifies beat creation with harmonic and tempo sync. Swappable cartridges and snap together devices support collaboration, while a retro, modular design enhances usability and style. Project Xylo is a series of portable midi devices designed for everyday music creation, offered in three sizes: sample, pocket, and midi.

Project XYLO Midi Device by Kevin Yang was highlighted as an innovative illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Project XYLO Midi Device earned the Golden A' Design Award in Toys, Games and Hobby Products Design in 2025. The A' Toys, Games and Hobby Products Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design award that honors outstanding design of dolls, action figures, board games, puzzles, plush toys, educational toys, building blocks, model kits and more.
