HOW TO USE IT? 1. Create a chord progression. 2. Draw an arpeggio – a rythmic pattern for your chords. 3. Compose a melody. 4. Build a complete song adding more sections. 5. Save your song, share or export to your favourite DAW as a MIDI file. CHORD PROGRESSION - Create chord progression of any length using intuitive chord selector. - Select a scale of your chord progression. - The chord selector will show you which chords are matching the selected scale. - Move chords around within chord progression using drag and drop gestures. - Transpose the chord progression by rotating the key wheel (with the lock button unlocked). Or transpose the key of the scale while keeping the existing chords unchanged (with locked mode). - See the notes of the selected chord and how the relate to the notes of the chord before and the one after the selected. ARPEGGIO - When you draw the arpeggio you are not specifying absolute notes but relative steps of the chords. When played, the pattern will be translated to the absolute notes depending on the currently played chord. - Specify the length and rate of the arpeggio grid. Length defines the number of steps in the sequence and rate define the speed at which the sequence is played. - Add up to 4 tracks to your arpeggio grid. Each track has it’s color, octave and number of parallel voices. To edit a track you select it with the track selection button, and then choose the required tool. - Draw complex curves spanning several rows and columns of the arpeggio grid with just one move with Dots tool - Draw long horizontal lines with Line tool - Move entire track along the grid using the Move tool - Clear a region of the selected track with the Eraser tool - Remove the selected track entirely using the Trash button - Set Loop region to repeatedly play only the selected section of your arpeggio. - Adjust notes velocities MELODY - Create up to 4 melody tracks. - Melodies are edited in their own grid, which also has length and rate params as the arpeggio grid. - Select the root note and the scale for the melody grid. You can also show and hide non-scale notes using the “Chromatic” switch. - Melody grid features the same collection of drawing tool as the arpeggio grid does. - While drawing your melody you will see which chords correspond to the specific steps and also which notes of the grid match the notes of the chords. - You can also set a loop region as in the arpeggio grid view. - Undo/Redo aslo works the same way as in arpeggio grid. SONG STRUCTURE - A song can contain unlimited number of sections - Each section has its own chord progression, arpeggio and melody parts - Add, remove, reorder, rename and clone sections - Make quantized or immediate jumps between sections while playing. - Set a song loop mode. Loop one section. Loop entire song. Or play whole song once. CONNECTIVITY - Control any CoreMIDI compatible app - Control desktop synths through USB or Wi-Fi - Control hardware synths - Specify MIDI destination and channel for each track - Use ChordFlow as MIDI or Audio sender in Audiobus ( - Play in sync with other apps running on the same device or on other devices in same Wi-Fi network using a new technology, Ableton Link ( SHARE/EXPORT - Share your projects by AirDrop, Mail, Dropbox or any other app supporting sharing . - Export to Standard MIDI file and open it in the DAW of your choice(Ableton Live, Logic, GarageBand, etc. ) ## ChordFlow Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple128/v4/5f/e5/69/5fe56940-599f-1da5-9f5f-91da5c954518/mzl.nfpozzcg.png/2048x1536.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple128/v4/e7/77/61/e77761d5-3ce3-1fc6-9f63-158294b6ec70/mzl.qfrchpmr.png/2048x1536.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple118/v4/d7/27/8d/d7278dd4-eca1-c9f7-b273-c740b5c8ab39/mzl.hwjbohyv.png/2048x1536.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple128/v4/ee/a0/53/eea0536a-bc81-fc3d-50c3-820aab69afee/mzl.svgbstar.png/2048x1536.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple128/v4/3b/e0/71/3be071d7-1037-b4d8-d357-91c2d93f048e/mzl.fzwoiefc.png/2048x1536.png) - [Screenshot 6](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple128/v4/20/f7/d6/20f7d6e5-bb75-a854-9f3e-f127c3e66ad8/mzl.bbvcmlch.png/2048x1536.png) - [Screenshot 7](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple128/v4/55/fb/cf/55fbcfec-0ed0-e698-9577-908c1a7b7392/mzl.bnwdrhym.png/2048x1536.png) ## ChordFlow Rating Breakdown in Vereinigte Staaten - 5 stars: 109 (83%) - 4 stars: 10 (8%) - 3 stars: 5 (4%) - 2 stars: 3 (2%) - 1 stars: 5 (4%) ## ChordFlow Reviews in Vereinigte Staaten ### **--- "Buggy. Sound stops working." The sound consistently stops working...it gets staticky and fades. General audio on my iPad starts becoming delayed in other apps and slowly clears up. Can’t really work with it long enough to be any use. -- Hanoveur, 2022-07-24 ### ****- "I’d love to be able to load it in AUM" - since all the midi backdoor plugging can get confusing. It’s the makings of a good sequencer core, for certain work, but all the menu work makes it… less fun, and harder to move the things you’ve composed into production. At least for me. -- sveinbjornp, 2021-06-28 ### ****- "Chords won’t sound" Hello, the melody and arpeggios work but the chords are aren’t sounding. Could you help me with this please? -- annaeneg1234, 2021-03-25 ### ***** "Purely AWSOMENESS" One of the best app for musicians -- axlegaming, 2020-08-17 ### ****- "A fun tool for sketching that needs a few features" This plus any daw or app like Korg gadget can lay the foundation for some amazingly quick and professional beats. I mainly use this as a MIDI out tool. The in app sounds are decent, just not what I want to use. Waiting on some updates like BPM swing. -- Myrkskog, 2020-08-10 ### *---- "Melodic Fail!" This app has great potential, but utterly fails to deliver on its basic promise. The app allows you to pre-define chords, be it a major, minor, dominant etc. then, in the arpeggio (chord) section of the app, it will automatically create chords and the inversions, so you can just tap in a two, three, four, five or six voice chord, and it will play the proper notes of that chord and allow you to quickly Invert them. However, in the melodic section, the thirds and sevenths do not adjust to sharp or flat notes! Are you kidding me! So if you create a chord in the melodic section, putting a note in the third and seventh slot, as the chords progress through your predefined major to minor pattern, the thirds and sevenths do not change to flat despite your predefining those chords as major or minor. That means your chord section is going to be out of tune with your melodic section by a half step. Duh! You will have a minor chord playing in the chord section and a major chord or melody playing in the melody section. How retarded is that! TOTAL WASTE IF MONEY !!! Rip off!!! Don’t buy this app. Who are the music theory morons that gave this app a five star rating that cannot recognize a dissonant interval if it punched them in the ear?! Who are these dim wits on YouTube that give “sound test bedroom tutorials” on the use of this app, but did not catch this obvious and glaring error! Don’t trust anyone with an affiliate link in the description panel on their YouTube channel. -- Orbanahuckorytree2126766, 2020-07-29 ### ***-- "How do I use this?" I can’t figure it out. Is there a manual? Chords don’t make sounds. Seems to do a lot but too hard to figure out. -- Salll, 2020-04-16 ### *---- "No sound output" Absolute waste of money. How can I get a refund? There is NO sound output. -- Sinova716, 2020-01-29 ### ***** "Great! Needs Link Start/Stop please." This is a terrific app. It’s one of the most intuitive-yet-innovative sequencing apps I’ve seen. It would benefit from Ableton Link Start/Stop support, however. Not a big enough deal to deny 5 stars. You can always export Midi; it’s just sometimes not ideal for workflow. -- JosephJFK, 2019-07-19 ### ***** "Great composition tool!" This app is very useful for sketching out a song. There’s a slight learning curve but once you figure it out it’s easy to build your song parts with melody and harmony, without having to mess with a more complicated DAW like GarageBand. Most importantly tweaking your chords/notes is fast and easy which lets you iterate fast. And all the chords you need are available. Some nice to have additions would be: * Add a basic drum machine sequencer * Allow the melody to reach lower notes (basically so you could create a bass line with it) * A few more sounds * Being able to use voices in amounts similar to the notes of the chord for arpeggiation (so 3 notes for a C chord, and 4 for a C7 for instance) without having to change voices. Keep up the good work! -- CascadeJay, 2019-07-17 ### ***-- "I want to fall in love" I have reached out to the developers so hopefully I will update my star rating soon but as of this moment I cannot use portrait view on my phone making it a non-functional app for me. Also, when using this on my iPad, it fall out of sync constantly with Ableton Link and that is not so awesome -- Just plane awesome, 2019-05-12 ### *---- "No sound" It has no output sound... -- Cmansimmons, 2019-01-02 ### ***** "Awesome App" I’ve been playing around this app create richer arrangements because I don’t play an instrument. The updates keep adding very useful features. Well worth the price. -- LJ Swype, 2018-12-05 ### ***** "Wonderful, simply wonderful" I have not previously rated or commented on an app. This app deserves to be the exception. It was already a joy to use and the recent upgrade moves it close to perfection. The quality and flexibility of the app combined with a responsive developer make for a wonderful music experience. -- justbobcross, 2018-12-01 ### ***** "Love" Really hope updates are maintained this is brillliant clean and super easy to use. Great app for results -- housemachine, 2018-11-29 ### ***** "Inspirational" I understand basic music theory but my understanding of the theory behind chord progressions is limited. My limited understanding is that staying within a key can be musically limiting. I’ve been on the hunt for an app that allow you to put together progressions in a less limited, flexible way. ChordFlow provides an attractive, flexible, intuitive interface for sketching interesting chord progressions -- Atm0spher1c, 2018-11-08 ### **--- "Not colorblind friendly, Please add tutorials and more examples" Please add a user manual, much more example songs (more than 4) and perhaps an updated video tutorial. I find the app unintuitive and very difficult to do anything aside from tweak an existing song. Additionally, there is heavy use of color-based ui that encodes information. This is a novel idea but it is absolutely horrible for users who are color blind. -- calvinbrodice, 2018-10-31 ### *---- "Doesn’t work on 7+" Pressing on the chord section or any of the melody sections doesn’t do anything on my iPhone 7+. Only the play buttons work. Expensive app to not work -- Aidan Hawking, 2018-08-30 ### ***** "OMG" I have so many melodies in my head and was getting frustrated because GarageBand and every other virtual instrument app is so limited .... it made me wish there was a way i could just DRAW my music - and thats what let me to this app. as i havent studied music since literally grade school, i have forgotten all about notes and chords, so Im a long ways from being able to play any kind of instrument ... this app is truly a gift to the universe, I am so impressed just after seeing a YouTube video, that I immediately bought the app and came here to write this review, because im sure once I get started, I will lose myself in the music. Thank you!!! I will post an updated review after i am done creating my next masterpiece :P -- Miss-Paced, 2018-08-13 ### ***** "Compatibility" Loved the app, I just wish it was compatible with Mac. -- Furefit, 2018-05-22 [View all ChordFlow reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/de/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## ChordFlow Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Bezahlt | Vietnam | Music | #367 | | Top Bezahlt | Nigeria | Music | #398 | | Top Bezahlt | Ukraine | Music | #416 | | Top Bezahlt | Finnland | Music | #438 | | Top Bezahlt | Griechenland | Music | #447 | | Top Bezahlt | Spanien | Music | #454 | | Top Bezahlt | Libanon | Music | #455 | | Top Bezahlt | Saudi-Arabien | Music | #457 | | Top Bezahlt | Niederlande | Music | #461 | | Top Bezahlt | Argentinien | Music | #463 | | Top Bezahlt | Indien | Music | #479 | ## ChordFlow Available In - [Vereinigte Staaten](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/united-states) - [Vereinigtes Königreich](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/united-kingdom) - [Deutschland](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/germany) - [Kanada](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/canada) - [Japan](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/japan) - [Frankreich](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/france) - [Spanien](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/spain) - [Russland](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/russia) - [Schweiz](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/switzerland) - [Österreich](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/austria) - [Irland](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/ireland) - [Taiwan](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/taiwan) - [Usbekistan](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/uzbekistan) - [Island](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/iceland) - [Libanon](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/lebanon) - [Nordmazedonien](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/north-macedonia) - [Vereinigte Arabische Emirate](https://apptail.io/de/app/chordflow-Vtxe/united-arab-emirates) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io/de) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
