The Harmonic Synthesizer (ハーモニック・シンセサイザ^?, lit.: "Harmonic Synthesizer") is a treasure in Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 4. It is a pair of castanets, one blue, the other red. In Pikmin 4, "Melody Rhythm" is written on the blue castanet.

Collecting the treasure in Pikmin 2[edit]

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

This treasure is found in the Glutton's Kitchen's third sublevel, and may be located in an alcove. Breadbugs, Anode Beetles, a Puffy Blowhog, and electrical wires may hinder Pikmin carrying the treasure, so they should be dealt with first.

Note that it is possible for this treasure to not spawn if the cave layout doesn't allow it, as detailed here and here.

Collecting the treasure in Pikmin 4[edit]

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

The Harmonic Synthesizer is near the lake around the center of the Blossoming Arcadia, on the shore to the west. It is guarded by a Yellow Wollyhop, which should be defeated before attempting to collect this treasure, although it is not strictly necessary. To collect this treasure, you must throw 7 Pikmin at it. When you attempt to collect it, a swarm of Mitites will emerge from the ground and induce the fear status in your Pikmin and Oatchi, requiring you to round them all up again.

Notes

Olimar's journal

“My taste in music is highly refined. But my wife and kids have no taste at all! For example, when I ask my family if they want to go out for karaoke, they twist their faces and give me a nasty look! They don't know what they're missing...”

Sales pitch

“This clamlike sound generator is all-natural. The purity of its percussive tone is irresistible. Clack-Clack!”

Sales pitch (Nintendo Switch)[edit]

“This clam-like sound generator is all-natural. The purity of its percussive tone is irresistible. Clack-clack!”

Schnauz's notes[edit]

“This clam-like sound generator is all-natural. The purity of its percussive tone is irresistible. Clack-clack!”

Louie's notes[edit]

“At first I mistook it for a giant clam. My stomach growls every time I tap it. Mmm...”
