There is a massive new update that’s been posted on the Isla Facebook page from Brad about what he’s been working on regarding the Kordbot.
Copied and pasted here from the Facebook page directly
Kordbot is long overdue some attention.
I’ve been working on this new firmware since last year. It’s a ground up re-write and shares little resemblance to the original firmware both in terms of how the engine works and the user interface.
Several different modes, the much coveted sequencer, 1000s of dynamic, editable chord progression banks get you from zero to a groove in seconds!
I have limited parts but I think I should be able to rustle up about 50 units from what I have.
I want to apologise again for the lack of support and promised features that the KordBot never got, I’m making good on those promises now that I have the means and a more focussed work environment.
I forgot just how much fun and inspiring the KordBot can be, y’all gonna love this.
Oh! And users of chrome will be able to update on Mac or pc directly from the web browser too!!!
Hi Brad. The Beta Post is closed: But figured I’d offer anyways given that chord instruments like this are my specialty. The Kordbot being one of my most used and favorites.
You may recognize my username SabreSour. I moderate the r/Omnichord subreddit, the omnichord discord, and I created the chord instrument website Omnichordcontenthub.com (All are spaces for chord instruments in general, not just the omnichord),
I’ve worked with many developers to improve, beta test, and promote a number of chord instruments including the minichord, Omnichord Heaven OH27 app, and many MANY others.
If you want a chord instrument power user whose done this kind of thing many times before, please feel free to reach out. Additionally if you want to promote the update on r/Omnichord or the Omnichord discord, that can be arranged as well.
