The Artiphon Orba was a gift for my son who loves to make music and loves new gadgets. He is thrilled with his Orba and was able to figure out its functions without watching videos. He found it very intuitive. We received his first video just a couple of days after receiving his gift. We just hope it doesn't distract him from work! I'm so happy to have contributed to Artiphon for the creation of Orba!

The Orba has become my idle-hands go-to toy, since I received it. It works great, considering all the things going on inside the little device. The wait was long, but the whole world was on hold so you can't blame them. I have a million suggestions, that I won't go into here, but my biggest complaint is the way the home key functions. It is very hard to use record, start-pause, tempo, and octave, without accidentally changing the patch. It takes me about 20 attempts before the octave function works, and I've never got the tempo to work. When looping, I always hit bad notes, which ruins the loop. (due to the home key mishaps.) I thought maybe it required more button practice on my part, but I can't find a consistent technique that works. Maybe turn off the function "home key changes patch" so you have to press home and the patch before it changes. I think that would clean up a lot of problems

I love the Orba! Still learning to use it.

Artiphon is awesome! Build quality and forethought make for fun and useful instruments.

The most recent updates have made a tremendous difference, I now can create beats that don't sound like preschool music kits tumbling down three flights of stairs!

It was a pleasure working with Artiphon on the Orba project! Artiphon kept me informed every step of the process. And we LOVE the Orba!!!! Job well done, and hope to work with Artiphon again. A Very Satisfied Customer

Artiphon is super cool. I cant do much with it yet, but I’m learning. Its a lot of fun. And I’m sure if you know more about music than I do you can get a lot out of it.

Using an Orba feels like getting a sneak preview of the future of music. And that sneak preview is great fun. Also worth mentioning that its capabilities and form factor make it good for adults and kids - especially handy in current times, when outlets for enrichment and creativity are extra welcome.
