Reminds me of the very happy hours I used to spend composing in Impulse Tracker as a teenager. There was something about that period in MIDI synthesis that hit the sweet spot: still artificial, but with a clean synthesis and a kind of depth and weight.

Fwiw, when this vid brought it back on my radar, I searched and found someone selling a Q-Chord for $125 on Craigslist. That's surprisingly low, but there are always people out there who don't know what their old gear is worth. The Q-Chord is newer (Suzuki says it's still in production) so less vintage factor, but it's got midi out which is pretty cool. Keep looking and you can find something
Yeah look I had absolutely no idea this was going to get so popular lol I was just trying to make a Video Every Day in April last year. This one was easy, and people latched on to it for some reason!
Oh my goodness.. my dreams have come true🥹 I’ve always wondered if there was somehow an instrument that could make such beautiful and magical sounds like the Omnichord does🥹… I’m so happy. This was such a good lil song 😌✨💜 really peaceful and fantastical💫🌈
Yeah. I just discovered this instrument recently through a cover video someone did on “Remember you” from adventure time. The OM-27 verson is just so aesthetically pleasing to me in so many different ways. I want one so badly but its like $500-$700+ on reverb and im legitimately so sad
@@Rice_Wolf yes but in the fall of this year the company that makes them are going to remake them for the 70th anniversary of the company because they've noticed people searching for them I was sad they are so expensive too but hopefully they will be about half the price and with new parts :))))))
I have 2 acoustic autoharps. I alter them and make custom chord bars to play songs that aren't possible with the autoharp's limited chord options. I really dig that this version does major, minor and 7ths in all 12 keys! I could do a LOT with that
@@Simoneister I spent some time researching them after your vid and saw some models do all those extra chords. You could do anything with that. Q-Chords look like they're still in production, so I could get one used way cheaper than an Omni.
Makes me feel like I'm riding a cute little cloud car down a highway over the sea, the city big and bright on the horizon line, and the stars are beginning to come out. So pretty!
@@doblet664 Once I got comfortable being alone I got a call from a cool alien chick from the Crystal City and we rode around listening to sweet Omnichord jams as she named each strand of hair on my head after the names of stars and planets. I think I’m in love
You are amazing I don't know why but this made me cry a lot. I love the beautiful tune and that you're playing this in your lovely pajamas XD From Japan with love💓
Very awesome playing! I've always screwed around with VST plugins of Omnichord type sounds, but never knew they were derived from this type of audio hardware. Thanks for sharing this video, that is a very cool piece of history you have there! I tried to find one for myself but when I saw the price I decided to stick with my plugins for now! :)
I guess my dad had one of these when I was a little kid? I had completely forgotten about it until seeing this. Wow. I played with this exact model a lot in the 80s.
A shame I can't get one of those where I live, the chords arranging is the same as the Stradella bass system for accordion which would make my life much easier put on an electronic instrument that doesn't weight a bloody ton XD
this is gonna sound over dramatic i think but this video is the first one i ever saw an omnichord in and therefore caused me to fall down the hugest rabbit hole ever, so I just wanna say thanks so much for introducing me to my favorite instrument and fixation ever,, i don’t know what it is but everything about this video is perfect, like it’s the CHILLEST jam i’ve ever listened to bc your musical ability with this thing is incredible (you even somehow got the color palette of the video to look awesome???) one day i hope i can get my hands on an omnichord, but for now i’m okay just watching awesome omnichord videos like this :>

so true

Accordion hacks

how do you get this kind of sound in it? ;_;
How

Never heard of 'em. What's a good song/album of theirs?
@@Simoneister This reminds me of their second album (and one of my favourite albums ever), Devotion. th-cam.com/video/WSLXEdI5ZVs/w-d-xo.html
Absolutely what I was thinking. Sounds like their 1st/2nd album. I think they used a yamaha ps-20 keyboard for a lot of their sounds...
@@Simoneister Try their song,"She's so lovely", its very similar in style to this.
in my opinion Bloom is there best Album, even though Devotion is also great th-cam.com/video/dQw4w9WgXcQ/w-d-xo.html
Its so cool I wish I had one.....
I know right but they are so expensive :,)
It's such a weird little quirk of synth history, and they've exploded. I look every now and then, and today I see them for $250, $450, and $650
I looked them up more today, and the latest version the Q-Chord is still in production. You can get a used one way cheaper, and they have midi out

Good grief this sounds incredible

Cool stuff
What a lovely instrument!!!

why does this piece of music make me cry?
So beautiful! I just purchased an ipad app version of this called polychord and having loads of fun. Used to have the Q-chord, and it was fun too.
This person is the reason I got an om-27, and I never regretted it, I’m planning on buying an 84 this year
I got a 36 instead! Its awesome
Whenever I see these omnichords I want to get them. Even my mom wanted one as well😭😭😭
this is the video I show people when I'm telling them about omnichord, it's really great
I guess my dad had one of these when I was a little kid? I had completely forgotten about it until seeing this. Wow. I played with this exact model a lot in the 80s.
sega's pocahontas theme would sound so ethereal with this omnichord...
this is calming my anxiety so well
thanks for this
Coolest thing l've seen in years. Beautiful composition.
i actually really liked this. the end hits hard
I got Adventure Time vibes to it.
Love omnichords. They are so fun to make stuff up on. The beats ain’t bad too
hell yeah, i love this instrument. The worst feeling ever though when you miss that god damn touchpad.
This is a mixture of Minecraft, lofi, and adventure time music and I love it.
I just snagged an om100 off of fb marketplace yesterday and this is making me so excited to get into it - this is beautiful!!!!
The sound of the omnichord is nothing short of beautiful, great job 👍
This reminds me of Yuele... Like totally sounds like something off of Serotonin II
the ultimate lofi instrument
This is literally Bedroom pop ❤
So lovely to hear this I can only play house of the rising sun waiting to get an omnichord looking none in england
This instrument looks so neat
