Parent Questions
We recommend ages 8 and up. Younger kids can enjoy it with supervision, but the built-in games and more complex features are best suited for kids who can read the button labels and follow simple game prompts. There's no upper age limit—teens and adults love it too!
Yes, there's a standard 3.5mm headphone jack! Plug in any headphones and they can play as loud as they want without bothering anyone. The built-in speaker is small enough for home use but not overwhelming.
Absolutely not! HiChord is designed for people with zero musical experience. The "no wrong notes" design means every button combination sounds good. Over time, they'll naturally learn music concepts just by playing—but no prior knowledge is needed.
HiChord has 15 different play modes, 10 scales, 7 drum kits, built-in games, a 6-track looper, and a vocoder. There's always something new to discover. Unlike toys that get mastered and abandoned, music creation is infinitely variable—they can't "beat" it.
HiChord is built with quality components in a solid enclosure. It's designed to be portable and handle regular use. No small parts, built-in rechargeable battery (USB-C charging), and no sharp edges. It's meant to be played, not displayed.
Unlock Their Inner Musician
Every kid has music in them. HiChord helps them let it out—no lessons, no practice, no frustration. Just pure creative fun.
