Description

Suggester is a tool for writing songs and chord progressions. This app will help you find chords that work together. It is efficient and fun; use it to build musical phrases that will carry emotion through tension and release.

Select chords for their harmonic function. The app makes full use of the roman numeral notation.

Simply touch a chord to hear how it sounds. Press the play button to hear the chord progression sequentially and adjust the playback speed.

You can work either forward or backward:
FORWARD - Pick a scale, then build your song from the chords that the app suggests. That's the quickest way to assemble chords that are compatible.
BACKWARD - From the catalog, pick a set of chords that you like. The app will tell you what scales it matches with. After you have selected the scale you want to use, the app can tell you what chords will fit in with the ones you entered before. That is extremely useful in jam sessions!

Pick chords and scales from our huge catalog. To go even further, you can create your own custom scales and custom chords.

To spice things up, you can borrow chords from parallel scales.

Explore new territories by using modulation.

Browse the classic chord progressions to find inspiration.

Use Drag and Drop to reorder chords. Hold your finger on an item for a second to start the drag operation. On iPad, you can also drag chords directly from the suggestions to anywhere in your progression.

Tap the note button on the left to change the duration.

Swipe a chord from right to left to delete it.

Export your songs as audio, MIDI or text.

Every sound generated with the app is also sent to the MIDI output, configurable in the Options. You can route these notes to another app on your device, an external MIDI port, or remotely to another computer by setting up a MIDI Network Session.

You can trigger chords through the MIDI input.

Use drag and drop between apps! ChordPadX and Suggester can communicate through drag and drop. You can also drag pads and chords into another app if it supports MIDI drag and drop.

Sync up your tempo with other apps with the help of Ableton Link.

You can choose between the english notation (C, D, E) and the fixed-do notation (do, re, mi).

Très bonne application.

c!Mo on

Très bonne application, sans aucun doute la meilleure du genre avec ChorPolyPad.

Excellente app

MrCarambar on

Bravo au développeur! L’app est simple à utiliser pour un débutant, lui permettant d’explorer les meilleures options harmoniques de façon très intuitive. Les notations jazz et nombres romains des accords et des toniques est parfaitement adaptée. L’app est également customisable pour une utilisation plus avancée. Franchement génial.

Décalage de synchronisation

melooman on

Très bon application cependant j’ai remarqué qu’il y a un léger décalage de synchronisation concernant le timing midi avec un séquenceur externe piloté par l’application car il n’y a pas de midi synchronisation maître et esclave J’espère que le développeur m’entendra

Application au top pour composer

Suggester c’est du tout bon.

Sam Sool on

J’ai découvert cette appli il y a peu. Je suis musicien amateur et je me débrouille nettement mieux à la composition depuis que je l’ai. J’adore aussi les commandes MIDI, c’est assez bluffant sur mon logiciel de MAO. Je mets 5 parce que l’appli est vraiment bien conçue, et relativement simple à faire fonctionner, mais j’aurais aimé qu’elle soit multilingue, et que je puisse la lancer en Français, parce qu’en Anglais, parfois pour certaines options je cours sur le traducteur pour comprendre les termes. Mais sinon c’est vraiment bien.

Vraiment TOP

Sfxmixxx on

Super application! On aimerait juste une interface un peu plus plus Ergonomique, sinon c’est parfait !

Meilleure app pour trouver des progressions d’accord

jacquesd62 on

Simplement parfait, tout y est y compris les midi triggers pour jouer les accords choisis avec une simple note midi, avec un contrôleur monophonique par exemple. Les accords sont finement parametrables , voicings, avce basse, extensions, appli très riche et très puissante, l’achat intégré est a mon sens indispensable. Bravo au développeur 😊

Clair et efficace

Bobyparis on

très bonne application. Complète et efficace, un outil indispensable. je recommande.

Indispensable mais perfectible

Valery h on

Excellente application qui m’aide au quotidien dans mon travail de compositeur. Toutefois j’aimerais que les suggestions de progressions d’accords soient plus complète. En effet l’application ne propose pas de progression d’accord pour toutes les gammes. Je donnerai une cinquième étoile avec plaisir quand des suggestions d’accords originales seront proposées. En attendant ne boudez pas votre plaisir c’est application est un must have.

Très bien

Freakoid666 on

Utile pour chercher rapidement une progression d’accords.
