Description

C.ARP is a totally different keyboard. Inspired by old omnichords it lets you play chords and melodies as well. Its design makes everything easier for a musician who just wants to play on mobile. Just hold on a button and then swipe or tap on the right section. But if you prefer, you can access chords and notes directly on the notes grid. Pitch them, harmonize, use mod wheel and apply real-time audio effects too. Rhythm section follows you every chord you choose: pick up the style you prefer, adjust BPMs, mute other instrument, change different midi settings, change drums and play them with drum pads. Do arpeggios with different sounds and rhythmic fractions, create different sound environments with delay, reverb and rotation. Record your voice or everything else as a sample, adjust its length, reverse or loop it, make chords and melodies with it and explore other cool features on this 4th version. There's also a tutorial inside!

Thanks to everyone who helped me: Giacomo, Virginia, Mattia, Andrea, Giulia, Cristiano, and the others.
Thanks to the masters Suriani, Frankie and Calcutta.

What’s New

Version 4.40

*FIXES*

After sooo much time finally a fix.

Record button has been restored. And also the "mic" button. 
(Almost forgot how cool it was for a songwriter.) 
Here is how you should use it:

For "normal" recording:
Open the panel and just press the "REC" button, wait 3 seconds (you'll se a little countdown) and you can start play. When you're done, open the panel again
and click on it another time (the REC button). Now you can listen back to it (in loop) and SAVE it (the yellow and the blue button). 
*When you're saving it, you can decide to send it directly to someone else or store it.

For "MIC" button:
To add your vocals you have to PLUG IN the earphones AFTER the app has opened. Ye, little weird I know. 
Now you can open the panel and click on MIC (in the bottom-right). You should hear your voice back in the earphones. 
(If it does not work, unplug and plug them back again until you see MIC button keeps in selected position).
If it is working you can use as it is (to rehearse or wherever) or record it over your playing.

Thanks again for your appreciation over the months.

Nice omnichord style music creator

Really nice design (including the beautiful instruction manual) and functionality. Think Auto Chord should be turned on by default as I thought at first the app wasn’t working on my device as there was no sound when pressing keys. Nice cheesy drums - would like an on/of button for drums on the main keyboard screen rather than always having to go into settings. Would be even better if it worked as an Audio Unit Extension so it could be opened in a DAW.

Thanks for your comment!! And many thanks for your feedback, like it, you’re right! We’re working to make it better and including your suggestions ❤️

Solid try

Very nice app, design, layout etc but the latency is a killer, especially when trying to play in time.

A few other points...

Sometimes the chord doesn’t trigger if you don’t hit it perfectly, and sliding your finger to the correct position doesn’t sound the chord (it always requires a re-tap).

Real Omnichords transpose the reverb of the strummed notes when a new chord is hit, which would be a nice addition.

Finally if you were able to add midi connectivity with external devices and other apps, you’d have a very formidable app indeed!

Really thanks man.. i know that is not as perfect as it should be! But i’m working on to make it always better!! Hope the next version will!! Again, thanks
UPDATE:
with the 4th version latency is at its minimum! Try it to believe. Hope you like all new features. Thanks

Cool little app

Love this little app. Though it crashes when trying to record. Could possibly do with an update.
