Chordophonic Devices brings together five of Puremagnetik's innovative plucked and strummed instruments, each offering a unique take on electroacoustic expression. Whether it's physically modeled plucks, stochastic strumming, or vintage Omnichord textures, Chordophonic Devices unlocks a world of harmonic and percussive possibilities.
Use Omiharp to craft lush electronic strums, Voga to generate evolving plucked phrases, or let Arkinaut transport you to a world of resonant, ancient timbres. Dial in Ultrakord for retro-inspired Omnichord textures, or explore the minimalist charm of Harpitron’s Tronichord emulation. No matter which path you take, Chordophonic Devices offers an expressive plectrum trove for composers and sound designers alike.
Omiharp | Electronic Strum Machine Omiharp is an electronic strumming instrument inspired by the legendary 1981 Suzuki Omnichord, capable of playing enchanting sounds across a spectrum of timbres. Going beyond the original Omnichord, Omiharp uses an advanced physically-modeled plucking voice with a series of timbre controls. This voice is then arpeggiated through a tremolo and delay circuit.

Voga | Stochastic Strum Machine Voga is a Karplus-Strong reso-pluck synthesizer that can create new musical phrases on its own. It will generate variable yet musical strumming patterns based on just a few settings. Voga can create anything from plucked melodic phrases to ambient guitar arpeggios. Read More

Arkinaut | Plucked Resonator Device Arkinaut is a fictitious electroacoustic instrument, inspired by ancient sounds and materials (zither, wood stone, glass and crystal), while employing modern synthesis techniques. It excels at producing timbres ranging from plucked and bowed strings to mallets and more. It was designed to create percussive and bowed articulations combined with idiophone transients and synthesizer modulations. Read More

Harpitron | A Suzuki Tronichord, Modernized Harpitron brings the beautifully simple sounds of the 1981 Suzuki Tronichord into the 21st century. As a precursor to the later, larger Omnichord (see Puremagnetik’s Ultrakord) the Tronichord employed a circle of fifths style layout for simple harmonic navigation and musical playability. Read More
