Chordjam

こちらのシリーズのアプリの中で､何故これはAUv3に対応されてらっしゃらないのでしょう？　是非対応をよろしくお願い致します。

Chordjam is really inspiring and very very fun to use, I absolutely love this app, except that it is often freezing up in AUM. Also It would be great if I can use it without expanding it quite large size on AUM screen. I’m looking forward to the future updates! Keep up the great work.

Love your apps. This app has issues. Feel bad asking for a refund, but this is unusable. I’ll email you guys a video of the issue.

I’m just now getting into it and didn’t want to give it a bad review. But did want to say that the key of C minor does not have a D# or G# in it, as this app seems to think. It has an Eb and an Ab. B# minor has a D# and a G# in it. I find this pretty annoying, kind of a speed bump, like misspelled words or bad grammar in prose. It can’t be a big deal to make the few flat keys and sharp keys display correctly. I wonder how confusing this could be for beginning musicians.

OMG! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Unbelievably cool free update. A real game changer for this tool.

I thought this would be a cool way to write new songs and come up with new ideas. However, when I plug in my keyboard and play, I can’t change the tone of the sound at all. I’m stuck with this electronic sound that’s built into the app. I wish that I could just hear the chords with a nice grand piano tone or something like that. Other than that, I’m also frustrated that there are hardly any resources online that educate on how to use this app. I found one video on YouTube, but it was an hour long and the guy seemed hard to understand. I wish there was some sort of help for this app. I’m a little bummed that I paid for it to be honest. I really wish I could change the sound.

Still haven’t gotten the hang of it. The workflow to find the chords is a bit weird in my opinion. mode. For example you can’t play a chord while it’s being edited. Meaning you can’t hear the changes you’re making unless you go out of the edit mode…!? Most importantly, the standalone mode is completely broken as the midi out does not work as expected. It will only send midi notes when the sequencer is playing. Not when playing the pads manually. That means 1. You cannot select chords without their stock synth playing (which you cannot change) and 2. You cannot jam with chords once you’ve selected them. To send properly midi, you need to use the AUv mode in a host such as AUM…

Writers Block? Gone! Best jazz improvisationist in the world? Absol- ok, not quite. I set it up on AUM with Module Pro. Set my midi keyboard to Module Pro. Left hand hits Chordjam which needs only one finger to generate beautiful, complex, lyrical progressions while my right hand is having the best time of its life (better than even that)! Seriously, I’ve been looking for a tool like this and I credit Sound Test Room for bringing it to my attention. Watch a quick tutorial and you’ll be wondering how you could have been writing music without this. The chords use up to five voices which covers an immense range from simple to very complex but each chord is always musical

The interaction between the scale and chord type makes no sense. The app makes it impossible to produce some basic chords, and user chords are not supported. For triad people, it’s a clever and useful app. For jazz and modern composition it imposes some irritating limits on your chord options. The structure for choosing chords is not likely to be improved without a major rethink of the core concept. UPDATE: yes, I watched the tutorial vids and I fully stand by my original review.

I’ve been using Chord Jam all week. It is brilliant. My Korg Nano-Key Studio has been transformed as a songwriting tool. The timing and velocity controls give such a human feel especially to orchestral sounds. Thanks.
