ORBA FIRST IMPRESSIONS
A dozen brave souls approach Orba for the first time, each in their own way. These unrehearsed first impressions use both Orba's unique onboard synth and its wireless MIDI capabilities with some of our favorite production software. Watch the full series below.
PRODUCT DETAILS
Orba’s touch and motion sensors capture even your most subtle gestures. Pick it up and hold it, or just reach over and play a few notes while it’s sitting on your desk. Tap it with one hand or both, with your fingertips or thumbs, or shake and wave it through the air. You can slide around each pad, or go crazy with some vibrato. It’s all up to you.










We designed Orba's revolutionary internal synthesizer to respond to the way you move. Its wide range of Drum, Bass, Chord, and Lead sounds have been tuned for real-time control via Orba's intuitive touch and motion gestures.
SYNTH SPECS
- Hybrid synth architecture: East Coast subtractive meets a West Coast toolset.
- Morphing oscillators mix square, saw, triangle, and novel harmonic-rich waveforms, and multiple dynamic envelopes evolve the sound as you play.
- Physical modeling in the palm of your hand Orba's waveguide creates unique instrument sounds with acoustic character, from vibrating strings to resonant tubes.
- Full MPE MIDI compatibility allows the player to sculpt and modulate each note independently from one another.
- Players will be able to select from dozens of presets using the Orba app, available for iOS, Android, Mac, and PC.
Get the most out of your Orba with the Orba companion app from Artiphon. Designed to take your everyday music-making even further, the Orba app offers endless customization with an easy-to-use interface.
Connect wirelessly using MIDI over Bluetooth. Then explore a library of Songs and Presets that feature different sounds, tunings, and tempos. Record loops, then easily save, edit, and organize your creations – even add custom artwork for each track.

THE LOOPER
