After long waiting for my ORBA worked fine for a few minutes until I put it away, no time to play further. Today I opened the pouch that it came with and it was completely dead, no charging either.
Any ideas besides going after warranty?

My Orba is complete dead! Nothing works anymore. No BT; No kabelconnection; No led light and the worse: NO sound!
Made an email tot support@artiphon.com and get a link to this site.

ORBA APP VERSION 0.15.27
We’re pleased to present two new Chord presets, including:
SOUL CHORDS ☁️
Beautiful chords that include a lot of 7ths, 9ths, and 11ths – giving this organ-like sound a soulful feel.
PASSAGE CHORDS ⏳
Inspired by vintage pop progressions and featuring a soft, breathy synth tone.
There are also several bug fixes, including a firmware updating issue with macOS 12 Monterey Beta.
ORBA FIRMWARE VERSION 0.15.13
Please be sure to update your firmware as well:
• We have fixed several crashes when using the looper. You might not have noticed this unless you went crazy with multi-part layering.
• We’ve also made the volume buttons respond faster. This way, you can turn up to 11 even quicker.
• And we fixed some issues with battery charging.
I am where you seem to be a year ago. Have I not picked it up in that length of time? Anyway I found where someone pressed the on/off + the down volume and it worked at getting my un bricked and it actually completed the firmware update.
I am not happy - only about a 1/2 hour to figure it out. Many thanks to all that have gone on this mission before me.
Thanks for following up on this @joseph. Just messaged you about your Orba battery!
I just received it. It worked the first day but now doesn't work, won't turn on and won't charge. Completely unresponsive. A huge waste of money!!!!! Don't buy this and leave reviews everywhere possible.
