What is a QChord?
Generally, the Omnichord or QChord can be thought of as an ELECTRONIC AUTOHARP. However, it is MUCH MORE!!! While an autoharp is limited to only 12, 15 or 21 chords which include Major, Minor and Seventh in as many as seven Keys, the QChord can also play Minor Sevenths, Major Sevenths, Diminished and Augmented Chords in all 12 Keys. It is far easier to play than the Autoharp, has no strings to break or go out of tune and is more versatile with 100 different sounds, built-in rhythm accompaniments and more.
