The Unholy Trinity of Sound: Orba 3 Descends Upon Us, Bringing Chaos to the Music World
After the incessant drone of the Orba 2, Artiphon has finally unleashed its latest abomination, the Orba 3. This handheld device is a masterclass in creative destruction, allowing users to record their own sounds and impose them on a bewildering variety of frequencies. And with its built-in microphone, the Orba 3 can capture the precise nuances of a screaming shred or the cacophonous din of a Manhattan construction site.
In a bold move, the Orba 3 can also convert these revelatory sonic artifacts into "samples" that can be manipulated and transformed with reckless abandon. Users can switch between four different modes – bass, chord, drum, or lead – to further subvert the original intentions of their sounds.
But wait, there’s more! The Orba 3’s "sophisticated sound engine" can automatically crop, tune, and perfect the audio, ensuring that the output is a symphony of aural anarchy. And with its USB-C connectivity, users can connect this sonic monstrosity to an external device, unleashing a maelstrom of sound upon their unsuspecting friends and family.
The Orba 3 is available for the low, low price of $160, a bargain considering the limitless possibilities for creative destruction it offers. But for those who yearn for the innocence of the Orba 2, Artiphon haswisely priced its predecessor at a mere $120, a token of the company’s commitment to catering to those who prefer their noise a little more mangled.
And did I mention that the Orba 2 was previously mashed up with the company’s first offering, Instrument 1, to create the Chorda? Yeah, about that: it’s like a crash course in music theory… for the devil himself.
