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).

Absolutely love it but

cadence1cadence on

Adding more various chord progression and a section for modal interchange would be great. The app itself is pretty decent.

Great !

아주 좋아요 ! 어떤 멜로디가 만들어 졌을때 거기에 자신이 원하는 코드들을 다양하게 시도하면서 코드 메이킹을 할수 있네요 , 코드 톤들을 명확하게 들을수 있어서 좋고 일단 그렇게 곡을 스케치 한후 실제 건반 앞에서 좀더 명확하게 곡을 다듬고 어래인지 할수 있습니다. ^^

greatest music application ever

황금가야 on

for first steppers and if several things are added. it'll be perfect. 1. every kind of chord forms. like "C9sus4" (there isn't ~9sus4 form and so on) 2. recomending the chord in easy way like (in C Chord) "D-7(11)/G" => "G7sus4" , "G7(b9)sus4" =>"Fm7/G 3. make the piano keyboard mode. and when user picks 3 or 4 note(or more). then it tells what chord it is. (included the place that can choose the base note separately) 4. and more chord patterns

...?
