Fleer Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 A good one for chords, though there’s Scaler 2, of course. I’m looking at getting Chord Sequencer in Reason. 1
Brian Lawler Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) Audiomodern also just released a free update to Chordjam 1.5 I don't see it on their site yet, but they sent out an email overnight. Adds MPE, chord "glide" and I think some presets. I've not had time to look at it yet. Edited May 25, 2023 by Brian Lawler YT Link 1 1

I'm avoiding Scaler 2 with a passion. If they want me to get Scaler, they need to make a version without samples.

They include "samples" which is a sound file they use for their voices of the instrument. Kind of like how Kontact works. I'd rather that they create a version that more light weight without that extra files I don't need. I'm sure that Scaler can be used to use my own plugins like Kontact by sending midi to it.

Oh, I see. Yes, you can route it to another instrument, of course. In contrast to the many GB of sampled instruments that I already have the 1GB for Scaler 2 never seemed like a big issue to me. But then again if you're already running out of hard disk space it might become a problem. 2
Marc Cormier Posted June 1, 2023 Posted June 1, 2023 Delete your least favorite Soundpaint library and it will make room for X copies of Scaler. I haven't even scratched the air above the surface of Scaler and I'm blown away at what it can do. 1 2
kitekrazy Posted June 1, 2023 Posted June 1, 2023 I don't think you have to install sounds with Scaler. So Scaler 2 vs. Chordjam - discuss.

Chord Gun. For some reason, I do remember having a "Panda" jsfx, but I'll have to check again later when I'm on the computer to see what it was. Since both jsfx scripts deal with the same category, it's why I get them mixed up a lot.
kitekrazy Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 I added this to the collection of press and create stuff. Most DAWs have these features. I do like Audiomodern stuff since I have Riffer.
Spice3d Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 The standout Chordjam feature for me was that the arp mode can be different for each chord. So passing chords can do an arp flourish leading into the next chord. I don’t think I’ve seen this before. I only noticed it watching a vid on new presets. I just look at this as another tool, not a replacement for scaler. For pure chord progressions, it’s scaler, hands down. I do find that they’ve crammed so many features into scaler, they need to rethink the UI. Too much is buried into menus and panels. Powerful, but ya gotta spend the time to learn it. Guess that’s why they offer classes on it. It’s a beast for sure. 1
Brian Lawler Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 I doubt anyone else here is as clueless as I am, but you need to go and get the two new free chord packs. They are not built in to the ChordJam update. https://audiomodern.com/chordjam-packs/ 1

I was kinda expecting to have to pay for the new packs. 1
