GESTURES
Orba’s touch and motion sensors combine to 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.
THE ORBA SYNTH
We designed Orba’s revolutionary internal synthesizer to respond to the way you move. It’s a wide range of Drum, Bass, Chord, and Lead sounds have been tuned for real-time control via Orba’s intuitive touch and motion gestures.
