Orbita is an interactive rotating musical sequencer that makes music tangible. Developed by Playtronica, Orbita lets you compose by placing and moving magnets on its spinning surface, creating rhythms and melodies in real time. Whether youâ€re a musician, educator, or sound experimenter, Orbita brings a playful, hands-on approach to music creation.

How It Works

1. Place the magnets → Each magnet represents a note in the sequence

2. Rotate Orbita → The spinning platform triggers notes as magnets pass the sensors

3. Experiment & create → Move magnets, adjust tempo, and layer sounds to craft unique compositions

Orbita connects via USB & MIDI, allowing it to work with DAWs, synthesizers, and other music software.
