Artiphon / Chorda (Blue)

Equipped with a synthesizer, looper function, sampler, MPE MIDI controller and other functions, Chorda allows anyone to easily create and perform music.

Artiphon has released innovative gadgets such as Instrument 1, Orba, and Orba 2.
We would like to introduce Chorda, which has joined Artiphon's new collection.
Chorda, which has functions such as a synthesizer, looper, sampler, and MPE MIDI controller, allows anyone to create and play music easily.

Compatible with various playing methods
The Artiphon Chorda has a built-in speaker, headphone jack, and rechargeable battery, so you can enjoy playing music anywhere.
You can strum the Chorda like a guitar or load a piano preset and place it on your lap, and the frets instantly become a piano-like "keyboard." If you're a drummer or DJ, you can also set the pressure-sensitive pads on the frets to a drum machine and play beats and rhythm sections.
If you want to play the violin or pedal steel, you can slide your fingers along the bridge and enjoy fretless melodies.

Endless possibilities with app integration
The possibilities of Chorda are endless when you find and assign sounds from the dedicated app's library, such as sounds from genres like R&B or real instruments like pianos and violins. You can also combine it with custom samples or connect Chorda to your DAW to play any sound as an MPE MIDI controller.

Gestures that add originality to your sound
Chorda has a very sensitive touch sensor and motion sensor. Try tilting or shaking the device. The device recognizes subtle gestures and changes the sound. Rather than just playing a sound source, you can create unique sounds by adding subtle changes to the sound in response to your gestures.

A magical instrument that anyone can play
With Chorda, you can enjoy playing and making music at any skill level.
You can customize various functions, set the tuning to match the keys, adjust the sensitivity of the sensors, and more to support your production and performance.
Anyone can easily enjoy the music itself.
