Cordial Chords

Posted on by

Mark Twain once observed that ropes possess an occult power to tangle themselves when you don’t look at them. Ropes and chords haven’t changed a bit in the past century. Thats why we all need ‘Cliphone’ to bond our headphone cables into submission. Designed in minimal style, the intuitive chord binder is a breeze to use. Constructed with silicon and and a Nylon snap button, ‘Cliphone’ can stretch itself to accommodate the fattest loop of headphone cables. Wish they came in a latex variant too ;)

Phaiton launches new Fusion and Chord headphones for the audiophile set

Sennheiser, Klipsch, Phiaton... what is it about audio brands that don't easily roll off the tongue? It's the latter that interests us today, of course, after announcing two new sets of headphones for those who are serious about sound. The Chord MS 530 is a pair of beautifully designed Bluetooth 4.0 apt-X cans that pack active noise cancellation alongside dual microphones and 40mm titanium drivers. Rated for between 18-30 hours of battery life, the Chord will launch on October 8th for $350. If, however, that's a bit rich for your blood, then the company is also launching the Fusion MS 430, which has been cast in lightweight carbon fiber and offers a pair of tangle-free leads and 40mm drivers, and a foldable design. The Fusion will launch on October 1st for $180, and so while you wait for Autumn to set in, check out the press gallery below. %Gallery-slideshow88672%

Tunable app shows musicians what pitch-perfect means as they play (video)

Tunable for Android and iOS shows musicians what it takes to be pitchperfect video

Musicians who've had some degree of practice will know the lack of sophistication involved in getting an instrument in tune and on time: a light-up tuning box and a swinging metronome may be their only real resources. Affinity Blue knows that mobile apps allow better, and recently unveiled Tunable as a one-stop shop for more exacting performers. The Android and iOS release provides a live graph that shows where the sweet spot is for pitch, and how closely the music has followed along for the past few seconds -- a boon for brass players, vocalists and others who need to sustain a note for more than a moment. There's also a simple tone generator and a customizable metronome that's easily seen from a distance. While it's $1 to try Tunable, that might be a pittance for anyone who'd rather spend time mastering a riff than rehashing the basics.
