The Q Chord is the latest instrument
in the Omnichord Series. It incorporates
technology from a basic keyboard and electric guitar and combines
both in a portable, easy to use way. The instrument is divided up
into three sections; a touch sensitive 'strum plate', a rhythm
section and chord button section. Each of these areas can be used
independently or combined. There are many wonderful and varied
sounds obtainable from the strum plate and the combination of
different musical sounds achievable is both impressive and unusual!

Easy to use
The
Q Chord is quite simply a unique instrument that anyone can play,
from novice to accomplished musician. By using the basic features,
the player will always sound 'in tune' and the 'strum plate' has
been designed to avoid any 'wrong notes'!
Just press a chord button, strum the "strings" on the unique "strumplate". Always in tune, you'll sound great using just the basic features, without ever making a mistake.
The Q Chord is an
ideal accompaniment instrument, which therefore makes it popular
with
a wide variety of different outlets and groups, such as churches,
Primary schools, Pre-schools/Kindergarten, Scouts, Girl Guides,
caravan and camping etc. The very soothing melodic sounds of the Q
Chord make it ideal for use in therapy groups and therapeutic
applications. Many organisations are now using it for this.
Educational/ Schools
Anyone can create
great sounds from the Q Chord, which in itself is an inspiration to
use it more and more. This somewhat addictive aspect to the
instrument can motivate the novice to learn more about the music
they are creating. Multiple skill levels on the Q Chord will allow
natural progression in this way. Many schools have now adopted the Q
Chord as an accompaniment instrument for classroom sessions or for
individual student tuition.
Accessories
There
are a number of accessories available for the Q Chord, the most
notable of which are the song cartridges. These plug into the
instrument and the karaoke effect makes it possible to play as well
as sing along to pop favourites, country and western, religious,
children's favourites, party hits etc. Great fun for all the family
to join in! The Q Chord is easily connected to a speaker, for
increasing volume to larger audiences, if required. The MIDI
facilities also allow connection to other instruments or to a
computer if needed.
