You can play fully chromatic in 3+ octaves with all chords. Accept no compromise - now you are able to play chords no matter what key you’re in!

In addition to 24 chords, you also have heptachords, adding up to 74 chordal combinations.

The instrument uses a custom compromised tuning that allows rich chordal playing without sacrificing single notes.
