Lovers of music tech history will recognize the quirky and innovative Omnichord as one of the most unique instruments of the early 1980s, a fact that Suzuki Music is clearly aware of as it looks to introduce the latest and greatest version of this novel electronic synth.
Dubbed the ‘OM-108,’ this electronic synth is named for the fact that its buttons allow combinations that make up 108 possible chords including standard major and minor chords to sus4, add9 and diminished variants. Musicians are able to press down buttons to create a chord and then use their finger on the touch-sensitive strumming area to create a wide variety of tones
This reimagined electronic synth comes with as many as 10 rhythm patterns, automated bass accompaniments and 10 different strum sounds including guitar, piano, harp and a couple of signature sounds from the early-1980s instrument.
