YouTuber Simoneister gibt uns ein Omnichord-Chillwave-Ständchen. Was kann man sich denn noch mehr wünschen?

The Omnichord is an electronic musical instrument introduced in 1981 by the Suzuki Musical Instrument Corporation.^[1] It typically features a touch plate known as „SonicStrings“, preset rhythms, auto-bass line functionality, and buttons for major, minor, and 7th chords. The most basic method of playing the instrument is to press the chord buttons and swipe the SonicStrings with a finger in imitation of strumming a stringed instrument. The SonicStrings may also be touched in one place to create a single note. Originally designed as an electronic Autoharp, the Omnichord has become popular, due to its unique, chiming, harplike timbre and its value as a kitsch object.
