Premium Sound Presets

Songwriting can get you stuck in your head, or worse, stuck in your old ways. Shuffle through 70+ Kevin Parker presets and land somewhere you didn’t expect.

Intuitive Chord Controls

Effortlessly play rich, luscious chords with a single touch. Use the voicing knob to follow your ear to voicings you’ve only imagined and progressions you didn’t know you had in you.

Powerful Performance Tools

Key Mode locks every chord into the key you choose, so you can experiment freely and never play a wrong note. Dial in just the right amount of Reverb and FX, and experiment with Strum, Slop, Harp, Arpeggiate and Pattern performance modes. Found a combination you love? Pin it in place and keep playing.

3 custom built soft synths

Pistil gives you full access to Orchid’s three custom-built synth engines: a polyphonic virtual analog subtractive synth, a vintage electric piano, and an FM (frequency modulation) synth. Use them to build exactly the sounds you want to hear.
