Reply To: Mario Nieto Chord Generator is out for $29

[Brian]

Of course I went ahead and bought it.  Rationalization that Mario really worked hard on Harmony Bloom long after release to include my and many others’ suggestions from the KVR/Discord channels.  I am getting along better with it than I did Chord Jam, but I think the UI is still clunky.  Presets sound nice, but creating my own chord patterns is not a smooth experience so far.- also an issue for me in Chord Jam.  Scaler 2 is just top of the pile and has been since it came out.  If you could create a pattern (complete phrase of chord changes) more easily in CG I think the editing features would give you a much finer tweaking control over the notes without dropping it to a MIDI editor and pushing them around manually.  I want to trigger the chord pads via MIDI, but the screen layout does not favor using a chromatic keyboard.  I am going to investigate using pads, but the screen pads also don’t favor a “standard” 4×4 matrix.  Onward…
