What Scaler Detector does
The plugin analyzes a whole song, a single polyphonic audio track or a raw MIDI stream and reports the key, scale and chords it finds. Audio and MIDI can be played in real time, and files can be dropped onto the window for instant results. Scaler Detector is available as VST3, VST2, AU, AAX and as a standalone application for Windows and macOS (64-bit), with native support for Apple Silicon listed.
Key features
- Whole-song and track analysis. A full song, a single polyphonic audio track or a raw MIDI stream can be analyzed to find its key and scale.
- Chord detection. Key, scale and chord detection use the same method as Scaler 3, so the results match that plugin.
- Drag-and-drop files. Audio files can be dropped onto the interface to get an analysis without loading them into a track.
- Scale search. A scale can be searched by name, and the user can start playing along with it.
- Scaler 3 inclusion. The developer states that Scaler Detector is included with new Scaler 3 purchases.
Compatibility
