Even for someone like me who&#8217;s a keys player and tends to fall into the same habits, it can break you out of those patterns and push you toward chords and progressions you wouldn&#8217;t naturally play on your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s simple to use. You can lock it to a key, and any key you press will give you something diatonic to that key. But, you can also break that up\u2014holding down Minor gives you a minor chord, Minor and m7 gives you a minor 7, Minor and 9 gives you a minor 9, and so on. You can also change <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/what-are-chord-inversions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the voicings,<\/a> toggle the bass on or off, and set the bass to only trigger when you&#8217;re playing chords. With the Key lock off, you can play a melody freely and just add chords when you want, with the bass hitting only on those chords.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Sounds\">Built-in sounds and performance modes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The bank of built-in sounds is one of the most impressive parts of the Orchid,&#8221; Devon tells us. &#8220;They lean toward analog-sounding retro synths\u2014you get a lot of organs, pads, and sparkly arpeggios. Each sound has its own set of performances and effects. The performance can be set to Strum, Slop (which gives a slightly different timing each time you press a key), or various <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/arpeggios-music-theory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">arpeggiator<\/a> modes that keep going continuously. Effects like delay can be adjusted per sound as well. Another great thing it has is a built-in drum machine with different drum sounds including <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/what-is-trap-music\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">trap<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/how-to-make-disco-music\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">disco,<\/a> and a looper that lets you throw down an idea and overdub over it.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"DAW\">Integration with the DAW<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;One of the coolest use cases is sending the Orchid into a DAW like Ableton Live to control different synths,&#8221; Devon explains. &#8220;When you plug it into your computer via USB, it&#8217;ll ask whether you want power or USB MIDI\u2014for our demo, we&#8217;ll select USB MIDI. In the Orchid&#8217;s settings under Audio \/ MIDI, you can assign different outputs to different MIDI channels: I&#8217;ve set up bass on one channel, chords on another, and an arpeggiated pattern on a third. In Ableton, I&#8217;ve set up three corresponding instances with Splice INSTRUMENT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I can now control all three simultaneously from the Orchid, and from there, it&#8217;s about experimenting with sounds. Adding <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/sounds\/instruments\/drums\/samples?asset_category_slug=loop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a drum loop from Splice<\/a> and layering additional instruments on top rounds out the session.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be sure to go to <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/YBvFrUHbiS8?si=Zhg4GnvfKITVkgm-&amp;t=333\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">5:33 in the review<\/a> to watch Devon create his beat in Ableton Live, as you can get a much deeper sense of the integration when you see the synth in action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Conclusion\">Concluding our review of Telepathic Instruments&#8217; Orchid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>And there you have it! Hopefully this review and guide gave you a better idea of how Telepathic Instruments&#8217; Orchid works, and how it can be used in the context of an actual production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a very special machine\u2014I highly recommended you check it out,&#8221; Devon says. &#8220;It <em>is<\/em> pricey, so if you don&#8217;t have the dough, there are other options, but if you have it and want to spend the money, it&#8217;s a wonderful way to get inspired.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are your thoughts on the Orchid?
