Chords for The Chipophone

_ _ This is the ChippoPhone.
It used to be an electric organ, but I repurposed it to be an 8-bit synthesizer for a live chiptune playing.
_ _ So you can play the square [D] wave, _ _ _ _ _ _ or the 4-bit triangle.
_ _ _ _ [C] _
_ You can add a burst at the beginning. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] And you can play the classics.
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [Gm] _ [Fm] _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
The patch can be changed for each manual.
So _
_ [Dbm] we can [E] put _ a triangle here instead. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] And in the left hand we could have, for instance, a variable pulse width.
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ [E] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [F] _ _
[Gbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _ [Fm]
When you hit more than one key at the same time, the notes will [Cm] play together.
_ _ _ [N] But you can also put the synthesizer in arpeggio mode, _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ and it will play in arpeggio. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
Of course there is also a third voice, the pedal voice.
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ The pedals can also be placed in drum kit mode. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [N] _ _ There is also a mode where you can get the glissando effect if you hit two keys next to each other.
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ And as you can hear, it's important that you don't hit the right note before the [B] left note. _ _
[Eb] That's when you get an arpeggio.
[Fm] _ _ _ [F] _
_ There is also a step sequencer with 8 steps.
And you can record a loop.
_ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] _ And you can play a track.
_ [Gm] _
_ [G] _ _ _ Change the octaves. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And then you can [F] jam to the loop.
_ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _
And that was the fade out [D] button. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
The loop can also be transposed.
So we can enter a basic [Eb] pattern like this.
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And then we can, using the pedals, _ _ transpose it.
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ And we can also put it in a special mode where the jams are played.
And the left hand can override the bass of the [Am] drum.
_ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ [G] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [E] _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And that's all.
