"Strum a guitar, bow a violin, tap a piano, loop a beat – on a single instrument. An intuitive way to create music and play any sound." The words from Artiphon themselves.

Imagine an instrument that is like a musical keyboard but for guitarists, cellists, violinists, and most importantly for anyone. Throughout history, instrument design and music technology has changed the type of music being created. The Artiphon Instrument 1 is compact, futuristic, and easy to use.

Anyone can Make Music


More and more devices are gearing themselves to allow anyone to make music easier and easier. This does just that. The ability to empower musicians to create music in an industry calling for constant innovation is a very powerful thing that they offer.

How Are You Supposed to Play It?


Even the manufacturer doesn't have information about how to play it. This is the beauty and a huge step out of the norm of music making and tradition. There are hundreds of years of history for the guitar and technique, and likewise for piano, violin, etc. The Artiphon Instrument 1 breaks us out of that tradition to allow truly creative flexibility, freedom, and most of all comfort in the music creation process.

And what's better, it grows with you as a musician. So you can be a beginner or a professional and the Artiphon Instrument 1 will be there to help every aspect of your playing.

For all you guitarists out there, you will also never break a string or get out of tune.

Does it Work With This?


Short answer, yes. It works with Apple's Garageband, Ableton Live, Logic, Pro Tools, Digital Performer, literally you name it and it's a yes. If the application or software you uses MIDI, then the answer is yes. This is the same with HUNDREDS of iOS apps.

Practical/Functional Features


  1. Turn the frets on and off. This is the first digital string-like instrument to support fretless playability, which is revolutionary for violinists, bassists, and anyone interested in sliding between notes.

  2. Use vibrato to naturally add real nuance to your performance.

  3. The entire interface is continuously pressure-sensitive, allowing for unprecedented control over software instruments via polyphonic aftertouch.

  4. Instantly change to any tuning (guitar, bass, banjo, dobro, uke, violin... koto anyone?), with capo buttons at your fingertips.

  5. Assign a different instrument to each string. For example, play a bass on the bottom and a guitar on the top.

  6. Pressure-sensitive effect control, tap and auto-strum modes, multiple notes per string...

Colors


Currently it comes in white or black, however on Kickstarter they offered a Nashville edition in white and black which featured a wooden back.
