The whole key.\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePick a key and scale once. Aurichord lays the seven diatonic chords of that key across seven pads, so every pad you hit belongs in your song. Progressions stop being a theory exam and start being a performance: hit pads until it sounds like a record, because it always could.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eVoiced like a session player, not a textbook.\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlock triads are why most chord tools sound like a doorbell. Aurichord voices each chord the way a keys player actually plays it: spread, inverted, musical. The difference between \"chord plugin\" and \"somebody who can play\" is the voicing, and that is the whole point of this instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe melody zone: you cannot hit a wrong note.\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbove the chord pads sits a melody zone filtered to the notes of your key. Sketch toplines and countermelodies with two fingers and zero fear. Everything you play fits everything the pads are doing, because both are locked to the same scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eORBIT: an arpeggiator that moves like a solar system.\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eORBIT takes whatever chord you are holding and puts its notes in motion, planetary style: patterns that rotate and evolve instead of running the same up-down ladder every bar. Hold a pad, let ORBIT run, and your static progression becomes a moving part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e100 factory presets, hand-crafted.\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne hundred starting points built by ear, not batch-exported. Load one, hit pads, and steal the mood: keys, voicing style, and ORBIT motion set up as a finished instrument. Hand-crafted is the ForgeDSP rule, and it is true here too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePay once. Own it.\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne-time license.
