3/22/2023 0 Comments Chord scale generator free versionScale, as you imagine, sets exactly what it says. Key sets they key you are working in C,D,E,F,G,A,B. The first four knobs are very straightforward. Also note, I tried to keep as many controls adjustable by automation in Live so you can further push what you want to experiment with (or be generative). The last thing I wanted was to spend a bunch of time and effort to get to different settings, as you know, that kind of tedious work takes you out of the mindset (or the reason you are using this plugin in the first place!) Spend a few minutes going through the explanation of the interface (it’s easy) and I promise you that it will all make a lot more sense. This is definitely not the smallest interface in the world, that said, it was designed for speed and results. The best part, this plugin is free (provided you own Max For Live)! Even further, pairing it with Ableton Live’s arpeggiator and you REALLY have a lot of flexibility in what you can do. This is the perfect tool to really get into exploring chords in all sorts of ways. I do not come from a keyboard/piano background and I don’t like getting lost in theory while I write music. That said, I wanted a chord generator that generated all chords in key with varying chord sizes very easily. There is nothing wrong if that’s how you like to work, and you can use a note quantizer after the chord generator. Most chord exploration programs either have non-generative fixed chord patterns per key (Cthulu) or chord generation that is based on the full 12 note scale and deals in semitones (Nordmann Chord Generator or Ableton Live MIDI chord plugin). I’ve spent a great deal of time looking through all the available chord plugins in VST, AU and M4L formats and just never really found what I was looking for. I am happy to announce Xeno – Chord Explorer Version 1.
