In case you haven't seen it, Imitone's patent is US20170098112A1 (https://patents.google.com/patent/US20170098112A1/en). This one's from 2017 and is still active, and it's for a periodicity analysis system. Hopefully it's not directly relevant to your synth.
The first time I saw it, I thought about playing a drumkit and whistling a bassline at the same time, with someone else on guitar and vocals, making a full rock sound with two people. But then I was too lazy to try it.
There been some people doing the whole "one man band" thing with a back pack drum, guitar and harmonica. I bet someone crazy enough could do one instrument per limb + harmonica and maybe even a theremin with some remaining appendage too.
How feasible would it be to add MIDI out support to this?
I often find my improvised melodies are more interesting when I whistle them, so this would be a handy feature.
Sounds a bit like imitone https://imitone.com/ (I have no affiliation)
FYI, Imitone has a patent, I don't know what it covers or claims though.
The relevant patent is from 1986, long expired: https://www.jefftk.com/p/ugo-contis-whistle-controlled-synth...

This is something I think about making every time I sit in front of my PC - thank you and I look forward to trying it!
It seems like it will be fun but my headphones just come in under the activation threshold, but I can't see a way to add some input gain
Try setting the gate to a higher number?
Sweet!
