From a very, very, quick test it does seem to work OK for the Orba 2 so is a bit of an improvement for that. However, I suspect that it remains not possible to test the gestures on Windows, at least (which depends on MPE midi, which Windows doesn't support). I couldn't be totally sure about that without out exploring it a bit more. That means you can only guess and hope your gestures will work, or work as you wish. (I don't mean to be too damning about that - it's a Windows problem, not Artiphons). That is unfortunate though because that was an area I really wanted to be able to use properly to try and get truly expressive presets.
It might be better for users of Apple and perhaps Android versions.
Ah - the page doesn't work in Vivaldi browser (Chrome based, I believe). It does work Edge however. May be an accessibility issue which Artiphon may want to consider.
At the moment it doesn't seem possible to get it. The page says "Enter your email address below for and instant download link!" - but there is no form to actually do that and get the link.
Is there a way to make a particular sound loop using these controls? Make it keep playing on a loop while I'm holding the key?

Today, we have some exciting news regarding something a lot of you have been asking for- Artiphon Preset Creator
Now, you can create your very own presets for Orba 1, Orba 2, and Chorda!
If you’ve already seen or used Orbasynth, everything will look pretty similar. One especially exciting new feature we want to highlight is that you can now import your own samples and modify them directly within the app. And for those customizing presets for the first time, you can also import various Orba presets to use as a starting point.
If not, Artiphon Preset Creator is meant to function similarly to the controls on your standard synthesizer. You have access to two oscillators that allow you to produce different wave shapes, a globals section which allows you to control the mix of the oscillators and LFO's, VCA control, and much more.
And of course, all of the gestures that you know and love on Orba and Chorda, like Tilt and Radiate, can be mapped to your chosen parameters.
Finally, you can add some extra flare like reverb and delay and then save your custom-made preset directly to the app to put onto your instrument.
Like Orbasynth, Preset Creator works for both Mac and Windows. You can download it here:

I've also attached the user manual below
We plan to release content that shows this off more in depth. In the meantime, we'd love to hear any questions you might have about Artiphon Preset Creator works
