Missing Time Signature
How do you setup time signatures like 3/4, 6/8, etc. ?
Description
ChordBud 2 is a MIDI chord sequencer where you can create unique chord progressions very quickly.
It has a very powerful music theory engine under the hood with +40 scales. You can select the scales you want to work with and see them from top to bottom on one screen. From left to right, you can see the chords inside those scales. You can either compare the scales or borrow chords (modal interchange) from each other!
By default, it presents all the chords inside a scale for the key you are working with which you may change at any time. But in the settings menu, you can also select the chord progression you want to work with and you can see the chords in the progression.
You can work with as many patterns as you want! You can set different keys, scales, and chord progressions for each pattern. You can copy/paste/delete them by long-pressing them. Patterns are triggerable with the MIDI CC messages. You can build automation or create a song mode with that powerful feature.
You are not limited to just the triad chords! The powerful music theory engine lets you modify your chords with add/sus/6/7/9/11/13 and more chord mods! After adding a chord to your timeline, just tap it to present the chord editor. You may change the chord mode, velocity, octave, inversion, key, and division of the chord. You can make your edits while the sequencer is playing, so you can hear your changes immediately while you are working.
In the timeline, you can move your chords to change their position. Also, you can drag them from their right edge to change their duration. You can pinch to zoom in or out in the timeline. If you want to position your chords more precisely, you can zoom in and work in the subdivisions.
ChordBud 2 offers its core components for free on Github. You can fork them to create your own music app! The standalone app's MIDI layer is powered by the open-source AudioKit framework.

Note: ChordBud 2 is a MIDI sequencer app. It does not produce sound itself. You need an audio app in order to get sound. Just route ChordBud 2's MIDI Out to your audio app's MIDI in and arm the sequencer.

ChordBud 2 AUv3 MIDI Sequencer Reviews
It doesn’t start playing on the 1st beat in Cubasis
Suggestion: Add a manual option to turn on/off Sync with the Host because the auto-syncing in the code isn’t functioning correctly. The pointer that tracks where it’s playing never returns all the way to the beginning of the track when I use Rewind to Start in the Host Transporter. This is a serious bug. Please fix this. This app used to work correctly, as shown in Leo’s 3 year old Tutorial. But now, it doesn’t work like that anymore.
Really love this app
I have all the chord apps. This is the most intuitive and easy to use . Love using it with brain and bounce bud
Class A sequencer from The Classiest Developer, in the iOS. Period.
Read the title!
A simple fix pls
please allow us to play our own chords in by hand instead of choosing the technical terms. It'd make fun a lot more accessible 🙏
Tutorial doesn’t work
Start using it with the tutorial? Well, you get to the second balloon, and that’s where the tutorial stops working. “Let’s select one chord and start!” But while you can select one chord, or as many as you want, you can’t go any further. The balloon is supposed to be your “Next” button, but it’s dead—you can’t get past it, it does not work.
Chord options are still limited
Still lacking simple functions like omitting fifths, or adding specific notes/intervals to a chord. You can get some great use out of this app if you’re using simple chord symbols (stuff like 7, M7, add9, sus4, 6/9, b11, etc.) but you can’t, for example, play any of these chords without the fifth, or without the third. You can’t play jazzy/bluesy chords that are difficult to define, either. There are all sorts of chords that are impossible to generate with traditional chord notation, and so it’s disappointing to see these left out. Please add an “omit X interval” function for each chord. Also, rhythm is very limited and almost non-functional. You can split chords into very large chunks, but there’s really no way to divide into 1/16ths or triplets or anything of that nature. Overall, great for quick sketches and simple grooves, but unable to create anything more complex.
3 beats..??
I just bought the app. I think I must be missing something. How do I set the time signature in the app? I don’t find a way to set 3/4 time for example…
Disappointed
Why can’t this load in BeatMaker 3? It’s says auv but it’s iaa.
None of these apps work in beatmaker 3
No matter what I try these apps won’t let you record in beatmaker 3. I bought the bundle to use in beatmaker 3 midi fx. It will let you hit play and the apps will work with whatever sound your using but no matter what it won’t record. Your apps say compatible with beatmaker 3 but that isn’t so. Would like my money back being your apps are useless in a iOS DAW
