Calculator as a musical instrument

Egoelife AR-7778 and AR-8001 are calculators specially created as musical instruments. It also comes with a method of use. However, the music produced will only continue to be melodious if it falls into the hands of talented people who often practice using it. Practical makes perfect! Otherwise, it will only become a mere plain toy. This makes Chaco one of the most successful and famous musical calculator players, even though there were many talented ones before him.

The beginning of career

Chaco started uploading his content on YouTube in 2018. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, most people were not allowed to leave their homes. That’s where Chaco’s talent began to be discovered! It must have been a blessing in disguise for Chaco as a YouTuber. Chaco found Egoelife and started experimenting with it until he was able to get a total of 815,000 subscribers on YouTube.
