Story

SWAY  UNLOCK LIMITLESS MUSICAL CREATIVITY & EXPRESSION

The Sway transforms your movements into music. Play notes, craft melodies, and control dynamic effects—all at the same time. With the Sway, you’ll unlock new dimensions of musical expression and creative possibilities like never before.

DISCOVER NEW MUSICAL DIMENSIONS

  • STRIKE: Experience velocity sensitivity – the faster you strike, the more intensity you create.
     
  • SWAY: Manipulate the rate of change to add texture, depth, or extra layers to your notes and chords.
     
  • PULSE: Infuse your sound with energy and excitement through dynamic vertical movement. 
     
  • GLIDE: Seamlessly glide between notes and chords, crafting unique musical compositions. 
     
  • PRESS: Control the intensity of your sound by varying how you press and release each note.
     
  • SCULPT: Introduce two hands to sculpt new layers of depth, allowing for expressive modifications of notes, chords and melodies—simultaneously.

Explore new dimensions of musical expression and creativity that were previously unattainable. 

EXPERIENCING CREATIVE BLOCK?

Unlock the freedom to explore an endless array of notes, scales, octaves, and chords with Sway’s innovative grid technology and built-in theory engine. The Sway automatically organises notes, empowering you to craft new melodies and break free from traditional boundaries—making creative blocks a thing of the past.

Select your desired note, scale, and octave from the onboard display.

Dive deeper into the grid layouts and chord customisations through Sway’s software, putting the power back into your hands to achieve your creative vision.
