These Arcana accessories provide proper solutions for different needs and disabilities. Playing may be adjusted by particular handles, by a simpler set-up of 3 keys instead of the standard 5 keys and by additional supportive equipment.

E-Box: By connecting to different switches and sensors using the E-Box, players with certain physical or learning difficulties can benefit from a playing experience that is suited specifically for their needs. The E-Box has six inputs; 5 that can be used to replace the 5 keys and another one which can replace the strum stick. The E-Box enables connectivity with standard switches and sensors that are in frequent use by people who have various disabilities. In addition, external switches, such as movement and light sensors can also be used, so that anyone can play the Arcana Strum comfortably. 

3 Keys Adaptor: The 3 Keys set is an alternative version of the standard 5 Key Arcana keyboard. Changing from 5 keys to 3 keys is very simple - the keys are attached to the instrument by magnets, so changing them is quick and easy. Playing in 3 keys limits the note range and makes playing simpler by reducing the amount of octaves from 3 to 1.5. In addition, the 3 keys mode consists of 7 chords only, as opposed to the 25 chords available in the standard 5 keys mode. It is important to emphasize that the 7 chords correspond to the 7 notes found on each scale. This makes a range of chords that is wide enough for users to enjoy a satisfying playing experience. After changing to 3 keys (which are larger and wider) and making sure the 3 keys switch located on the back of the instrument is activated, the user can start playing right away.

Y Handle: The Y handle secures and bonds the hand/foot in cases where the player’s muscle tone is tight and movements are less controlled. The strap can be adjusted to hold both a hand or a foot.    

Flat Handle: The flat handle is similar to the bonded-strip handle – it secures the hand or foot. The main difference is its small size and its flatter shape. It is a great accessory that allows more flexibility, so players can use their arm, wrist or elbow freely, while strumming.  

Narrow Handle: The narrow handle is a simple upright rod that doesn’t contain a ball like structure. It is similar to a standard joystick handle. This handle was designed for audiences who require a unique grip. It is suitable especially for those who wish to use their thumb and index finger for holding and it is convenient for anyone who requires a smaller surface handle, compared to the included handle.

Ball Handle: This strum-stick handle has a ball-style handle. It's smaller than a golf ball and is identical to the handle used in motorized wheelchairs. It can be grasped fully with the palm of the hand. Some people have difficulties playing with a large handle due to the tight muscle tone they experience, therefore, playing with this smaller strum-stick can be more comfortable for them. It is suitable for those who have trouble opening their hand, those with limited finger control or even those who can only control the base of their wrist.    

Air Strum: Proximity sensor for Arcana Strum.

T-Mount: Securely attach Arcana to a surface so that wheelchair users can play.

Carry Case: A protective rain-proof soft carry case for the Arcana Instrument.
