Arcana Instruments Strum Accessible Instrument
At the 2025 NAMM Show, Arcana Instruments made its NAMM Show debut of the Strum, an accessible electronic instrument.
The Arcana Strum is an example of adaptive technology, designed to be able to be used by people with a wide range of physical and cognitive abilities.
The Arcana Strum can be played in many different ways, and can be customized to be usable by people with a wide range of abilities.
Accessory options include a variety of playing handles, an alternate keyboard, a T Mount for securing the device to a desk, and the Air Strum, which lets users control the Strum using movement of the hands, feet or head.
“During development…we carefully studied and considered your needs in order to optimize your playing experience,” note the developers. “For instance, several ideas came from observing how people operate motorized wheelchairs, and we incorporated some of these ideas in the accessories we developed. By doing so, we provide solutions for a wide range of needs and abilities, both physical and cognitive.”
