iPhone

Every photograph holds a song. Chromacord presses it out on your iPhone, offline, and presses the same one every single time. Chromacord presses a photograph into a record. Pick a photo. Watch it dissolve into a spinning disc. Hear the song it holds, seconds later. HOW IT WORKS 1. Press a photo from your library, or take one now. 2. Chromacord measures the light, the colour and the detail in the image. 3. Those measurements decide the key, the tempo, the chords and the texture. Which means the same photograph presses the same song, every single time. Press it again tomorrow, on another iPhone, in a year, and the same record comes back. Try it: press a photo, then press the same photo again. Identical. Now press the one taken a second later, and hear it change. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE No artificial intelligence. No cloud. No account. No server. Your photograph is read on the device and never uploaded, never sent, never seen by anyone. Chromacord works in airplane mode, on a plane, forever. WHAT COMES OUT A warm, unhurried lo-fi piece: a soft keys line, a bass, brushed drums and a tape-worn bed, tuned by your photograph and looped so it closes cleanly. Four bars, or eight with Pro. And a vertical video, ready for stories: your photograph mounted on a printed card, the waveform running along the chin, the signature underneath. The photo is never cropped. The card is cut to fit it, because the sound was made from the whole picture and the video should show the whole picture. THE CRATE Every pressing is kept in a crate you can flick through. Star the ones worth keeping. Scratch the record with a finger while it plays, and hear it drag like the real thing. FREE, AND PRO Making and hearing pressings is unlimited and always free. Three video exports are on the house. Chromacord Pro is a one-time purchase, no subscription: - Unlimited video exports - Eight-bar pressings - Audio export - Tempo and mix controls - Every card colour MADE BY ATYPICAL APPS An independent studio. We build small, careful things.
