Amazing Sound Quality

iChord^TM will be an input Controller and an output Amplifier for your Smart Phone
along with other high quality sound producing MIDI compatible devices and it's

so Easy to Play
just press a key and strum.

Simple Chord-Type Selection

Sharps and Flats are Simple

Most of the chords found in off-the-shelf guitar music (written with chord notation) will be chords based on natural root-notes, like for example a "B".  To play a B natural, just press the B key straight down, but when you see a flat symbol (♭) with a B like this B♭, no worries, it's easy.  Just press the B key and toggle down and the strummer section is instantly ready for you to play a B♭ when you strum the Virtual-Strings.

Advanced Play

iChord^TM will come preset to play 168 different chords even though you will only need about 29 to play most of the songs ever written using only three chord-types accessed with your right-hand in the strummer section.  But when you're ready for some advanced two finger playing, these keys (see above photo) in combination instantly select for some Supplementary Chord-Types by overriding our default settings in the strummer section.  We'll teach you with online tutorials, but you probably won't need them, it's so easy.  iChord^TM will put a Big Smile on your face when, for the first time you easily strum through your first beautiful set of chords!

Updated Keyboard and Strummer Design

iChord^TM will Control and Amplify your music by Interfacing with software and devices
like BandLab® on your Android® Phone or GarageBand® on your iPhone® including many other high quality sound producing MIDI compatible devices.

Musicians know what it feels like to accompany themselves as they sing, it is a very big emotionally satisfying experience.  We are sure iChord^TM can help make this happen for you. You just have to experience it to fully appreciate and understand how incredible it is. 

When I sang for the first time with one of our early prototypes, I was immediately hooked, it was an incredible feeling.  I instantly knew iChord^TM could make this happen for millions of non-musicians who would otherwise never know what they were missing. 

Music Therapy for Your Mind and Heart

iChord^TM will also help you exercise and synchronize left and right brain functions, improve mental agility, and physical coordination.  As you just play around with iChord^TM,  some elements of Music Theory will become obvious, almost without thinking about it.  And, as you control the accompaniment of your own singing,  iChord^TM will give you greater power and ability to express your love and feelings for and with others. 

Easy Plug-and-Play - How will it work?

iChord^TM  will be a MIDI controller (a music computer code generator) and an amplifier,   designed to easily synchronize (communicate) with your cell phone's MIDI* software like Apple's® GarageBand® (iOS) which comes installed on most Apple® phones and devices or like BandLab® for Android* phones and others.  There are many good free software programs available.  If you don't have one on your smart phone, we'll help you download a good one.

Also, Easy Plug-and-Play with Professional Equipment

iChord^TM will be a MIDI input/output device capable of interfacing with and controlling most kinds of MIDI compatible synthesizers, amplifiers, software and other devices.  So, if you want to go to the next level to experience the thrill of connecting with some of the best music equipment and software in the world and sound even better, iChord^TM  will do it.

You will be able to Plug-and-Play into some amazing equipment and sing with pitch correction and multiple voice harmonies all guided by iChord's^TM perfect in-tune chord production as you play.  It's hard to describe how incredible and powerful this experience is!  And of course, you will be able to record and publish your own creations on social media sites.

MIDI* (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) has become a standard computer software protocol for the music industry, designed specifically to allow digital synthesizers and computers to communicate with each other.  It was invented in the early 1980's.

Just relax and enjoy singing anywhere.

These are some of our past products.

It is vital today to understand the importance of building and contracting with leading world class engineers, manufacturing and fulfillment firms.  Because we have years of experience in this arena, we have become very smart about team building and contracting with the best.  True principles never change, but technology, know-how and tools do.  This is why we have chosen to contract with a great engineering firm called Product EVO along with others to help us bring iChord^TM across the finish line.  With you as a member of our team we can make this happen!

Our Vision Statement

Years ago there was a pop singing group called “The New Seekers” and another group called "The Hillside Singers," they recorded a hit song called “I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony).”  When I would hear that song, it would fill me with a strong desire that we could all (metaphorically) sing together in perfect harmony and be at peace and one with each other, something I believe we all deeply yearn for (we should each have a place and a part to sing in a world of peace and harmony)!

 We believe most people are good and want the best for everyone.  We believe music is one of those powerful uniting voices that has and can still make a lasting difference for good.  Music is even more powerful as we sing together. Good music is a powerful language, the expression of feelings and emotions that speak from and to the heart, a language we can all understand.  Music can inspire compassion and elevate our actions.  Music can be like a time machine that transports us back in time to remember cherished memories; it can bring us peace and joy in the present moment and then carry us forward with hope and certainty for a better future.

In some small way maybe iChord ^TM can help us better nurture and express our love and compassion for and to each other and to a needy and troubled world.  Would it be worth it if only one person’s heart was softened and one violent act averted because someone sang a song that otherwise would not have been sung?

We think so!

Please, join with us as we work to heal and build a more gentle, peaceful and harmonious world and have some fun at the same time. 

Please back us today and let us all move toward a happy future.

Thank You!
