A nifty chord generator
Orchid’s chord generator includes an eight-key matrix for selecting and editing chords. To play a chord, you play the root note on the keyboard and use the generator to trigger the chord, selecting its voicing and using a rotary encoder to change the pitch and reposition the chord.
