WHAT IS THE THEORYBOARD?
12 Direct modulation hot keys for on-the-fly key changes
12 Modal interchange hot keys for on-the-fly mode switching
The TheoryBoard is the evolution of the MIDI controller. It's innovative lay out allows the user access to a new way of perceiving music, making it the ultimate hack for production and composition. Previously complex world of scales, chords, inversions, melody, and harmony is finally packaged into an easy-to-use simplified form.
By merging color and sound the TheoryBoard provides a synesthetic experience for anyone interfacing with the product. Diatonic scales, chord groups, and the correlations between them are expressed through color giving the user a unique advantage by allowing visual reference points while playing.
The TheoryBoard houses every scale known to man. When the user selects a scale they have full access to every note and every possible chord within that scale. The user can also shift the root note of the loaded scale on the fly (direct modulation), or easily shift into one of its 7 modes (modal interchange). This removes any doubt from what can, or can't be used... All the right combinations are right there at your fingertips.
The TheoryBoard is for anyone interested in composing or producing music. A complete novice could pick this up and instantly level up their understanding of theory, while advanced producers could use this to derive new inspiration.
