{"product_id":"hichord-aluminium-edition","title":"HiChord Portable Chord Synthesizer - Aluminium Edition","description":"\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eThe HiChord Portable Chord Synthesizer is a pocket sized, chord based instrument designed to make songwriting and music making as immediate as possible. Built around a unique one button chord interface inspired by the Nashville Number System, it allows you to play full chords without needing to know traditional keyboard shapes, making it an easy way to sketch ideas wherever you happen to be.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside is a powerful digital synth engine with more than 30 instruments, covering everything from saw waves, pads and strings to piano, flute, brass and FM electric piano. Four different sound engines combine analogue style waveforms, FM synthesis, sample playback and hybrid sounds, while automatic voice leading, 28 chord types and 10 scales keep everything musical. There is also a selection of built in effects including delay, reverb, tremolo and glide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHiChord is far more than a simple chord instrument. Its built in microphone can be used as a sampler, allowing you to record anything from a guitar riff to a voice or found sound and play it back harmonically across the chord buttons. The microphone also powers a live vocoder, letting you sing or speak through harmonised chords and layer the results into the onboard looper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThirteen play modes open things up even further, with options for strumming, melodies, drones, arpeggios, rhythmic repeats and step sequencing. A built in drum machine adds seven kits and 56 beat patterns, while everything can sync with the looper for quickly building complete ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite the amount of technology inside, HiChord is genuinely portable. The CNC machined aluminium chassis is smaller than most phones and includes a rechargeable battery, built in speaker and OLED screen. Stereo audio I\/O, headphones, USB audio and USB C MIDI make it just as useful in the studio, where it can connect directly to a DAW or control external synthesizers without the need for an additional interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003eOne button chords\u003c\/strong\u003e Unique chord based interface inspired by the Nashville Number System\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003e30+ instruments\u003c\/strong\u003e Synths, strings, piano, brass, pads, FM sounds and more\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003eBuilt in effects\u003c\/strong\u003e Delay, reverb, tremolo, glide and additional sound shaping options\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003eSampler and vocoder\u003c\/strong\u003e Record sounds through the built in microphone or create live harmonised vocal effects\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003eDrum machine\u003c\/strong\u003e Seven drum kits and 56 beat patterns with automatic looper sync\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003e13 play modes\u003c\/strong\u003e Including Play, Strum, Lead, Drone, Arpeggio, Repeat, Sequencer and Drums\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003ePortable design\u003c\/strong\u003e Rechargeable battery, built in speaker, OLED screen and pocket sized aluminium chassis\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003eStudio ready\u003c\/strong\u003e Stereo audio, headphone output, USB audio and USB C MIDI connectivity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003eAdvanced sound engine\u003c\/strong\u003e Six voice polyphony, 12 oscillators, two operator FM synthesis and sample playback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cstrong\u003eFirmware updates\u003c\/strong\u003e New sounds and features can be added through firmware updates\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSound engines:\u003c\/strong\u003e Analogue waveform, FM synthesis, sample playback and hybrid layers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolyphony:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 voice\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOscillators:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChord types:\u003c\/strong\u003e 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScales:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrum kits:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeat patterns:\u003c\/strong\u003e 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudio:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stereo 96kHz \/ 24 bit audio I\/O\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSample memory:\u003c\/strong\u003e 64MB SDRAM, up to 10 minute audio buffers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnectivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5mm headphones, auxiliary output, USB audio and USB C MIDI\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chord buttons, joystick and OLED display\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rechargeable battery via USB C\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e CNC machined aluminium\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HiChord","offers":[{"title":"Jet Black Anodised Aluminium","offer_id":57208363221370,"sku":null,"price":359.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver Anodised Aluminium","offer_id":57208363254138,"sku":null,"price":359.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/1189\/files\/IMG_8589.jpg?v=1787844402","url":"https:\/\/notomguitars.com\/es\/products\/hichord-aluminium-edition","provider":"No.Tom Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
