Kevin Parker Built a Synth and It's Actually Incredible: Telepathic Orchid Reviewed (Plugged In)

video upload by Splice

"What happens when you plug the Telepathic Orchid into Splice INSTRUMENT and let it run? In this Plugged In Splice's Devon Johnson ‪@dontgodcj‬ finds out — and the results speak for themselves.

The Telepathic Orchid, co-created by Tame Impala's Kevin Parker, is a chord-generating synthesizer designed to help producers and songwriters find musical ideas fast — without needing deep music theory knowledge or traditional keyboard technique. Paired with Splice INSTRUMENT, it becomes something even more powerful: a way to explore sounds and progressions at the same time, in the same session.

In this video, Devon unboxes and demos the Telepathic Orchid and its various creative uses and incredibly chord generating technology. He then uses the Orchid's chord logic system as a MIDI controller to trigger sounds inside Splice INSTRUMENT, building a full beat from scratch and showing exactly how the two tools work together in a real production workflow. From dialing in chord voicings and inversions on the Orchid to flipping through Splice's instrument sounds in real time, this is hands-on and unfiltered — no templates, no pre-built loops, just the tools doing what they're built to do.

Whether you're already a Splice user curious about the Orchid, an Orchid owner wondering how to integrate it into your DAW setup, or just a producer looking for a new way to create new chord patterns — this one's worth watching all the way through.
