Telepathic Instruments Orchid Review – Hands-On With Tame Impala’s Idea Machine
Host Ziv Eliraz – in his latest loopop video – shares a hands-on review of the new Orchid, an advanced chord-generating hardware synthesizer that they say was “developed for songwriters, producers and musicians to expand the possibilities of songwriting and musical exploration”.
The synth combines a variety of tools most readers will be familiar with – including synthesizers, sequencers, arpeggiators, chord organ and loopers – into a single device, designed specifically for developing musical ideas.
In his review, Eliraz discusses the Orchid’s capabilities, digs into its sound and performance features, and offers his take on its pros and cons.
