Orba 2 by Artiphon.
It’s a handheld, battery powered synth, looper, sequencer, drum machine, etc. and you can make you own little tracks on it. It has a built-in speaker. It’s quite beginner friendly, but also has some advanced features such as being an MPE-enabled controller for your software and it also has its own programmable synth engine than you can download and create your own presets on it.
A highlight feature of Orba 2 is sampling’s but but you cannot record samples from the device itself. This is done through the companion app for your computer or mobile device and then you transfer the sample to your Orba via a wired connection. Otherwise the companion app works via Bluetooth and is used for changing presets, changing the key of the parts that you’re playing - since these 8 pads are always set to play in a certain key and scale and some other basic tweaks. It’s in no way a deep app and this is more of a fun toy type of device - the kind if thing the you just pick up and play or a great Christmas gift for a musician or even someone with casual interest in music..
It’s fairly limited in its capabilities but for the price of $150 or Euro for Orba 2 and about $100 for Orba 1 it’s a reasonably capable device and really fresh concept by Artiphon.

Great review. This has been one of those devices that has been hard to resist buying it as an impulse buy, but after watching this, I'm glad I've not spent my money. Good looking out, man.

[@LowHeatBeats]

I've been so wanting one of these just for fuuuuun! It could be tight to make up a beat to cut over on the fly for portable turntablism.
Can you load in samples into a folder per-say from the app instead of recording?

[@LowHeatBeats]

Never thought about this but a great idea actually!

This seems like one of those gadgets you play around with for a few days, and then never look at it again. Not too expensive, but not really worth it for me. Anyways thanks for your time to review it.

[@LowHeatBeats]

Thanks for watching, Ed!

Pros & cons alike, but the real question is:
what other devices can you get, that do what Orbaloops2 can, for the same/less price?

[@LowHeatBeats]

I don’t know, maybe an iPhone app?
