What ChordAXE does
The plugin is organized around a harmonic map where all chords and keys sit in their natural harmonic order and can be played directly. Chord changes can be traced with the Mesh view, which captures the timing and velocity of notes played on a MIDI keyboard, and the same map lets a user borrow chord-change presets that rework different keys, voicings and rhythmic flows. Chord choices, keys, voicings and rhythmic expression are controlled in real time, so a single note can drive a full chord change. Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Cubase, FL Studio, Reaper and Bitwig are named by the developer as hosts.
Key features
- Chord map and traced changes. All chords and keys are laid out in their natural harmonic order on a playable map, and the Mesh view traces chord changes with their timing and velocity from a MIDI keyboard.
- Four-dimension voicing control. Chord-change voicings are shaped along four dimensions: key tonic, pitch register, inversions and pitch spread, adjusted by ear.
- Rhythmic chord patterns. Rhythmic pattern presets move chord notes through time, and timing and velocity of each voiced note can be controlled in real time to bring out instrument tones.
- Movable MIDI control zone. A movable MIDI control zone lets added notes such as melodies, riffs and basslines fly outside the chord region, and a keyboard display shows all generated chord notes as they play.
- Harmony parts and sub-octaves. Well-voiced chord changes can drive 3-, 4- or 5-part harmony, with an optional sub-octave, and individual harmony parts carry through changes so notes overlap smoothly.
- Crack, keygen and serial variants. Searches for ChordAXE keygen, serial key and repacked builds such as .rar and .iso archives are common, and the Mac build is often listed as a macOS crack.
