Inspired by the classic Omnichord OM27 from the 80s, this module revives that magical instant-chord vibe in a compact Eurorack format, blending nostalgia with modern modular flexibility.
At 42HP with a removable wooden enclosure, it packs 12 capacitive touch sensors acting as a chord strip for major/minor voicings plus variations like 7th, min7, maj7, dim, aug, add9, sus2, and sus4. Three buttons let you craft and store custom 4-note chords, while replicated OM27 analog circuits handle lush chord tones, harp-like strums with sustain/hold, and switchable bass—complete with stereo headphone out and octave shifting. A chord step sequencer with rests, ties, and tap tempo pairs with dual independent arpeggiators (one per section) that sync internally or run free, plus CV/gate from the touchbar, dual MIDI outs, tempo sync jacks, and USB-C for power/MIDI. Switch the touchbar to strings mode for guitar, ukulele, or 12-string play.
Modular folks are loving how it slots effortlessly into racks or stands alone, praising the authentic analog warmth and creative sequencing for ambient layers and instant song ideas, though some note the learning curve for deeper customization.
