Chord Progressions that inspire...

Video Intro

So, what's it all about?

Originally designed as an EDM tool, this creativity plugin magically conjures up chords of all shapes and sizes with ease - in just a few clicks. Try out new ideas within the intuitive interface or click "create" to get CHORDS PRO to come up with unique concepts, from suggesting single 4-note chords to producing entire 8-chord riffs.

CHORDS PRO

W.A Production has injected CHORDS PRO with many new features: Use the A/B comparison toggle to lock in a favourite sequence, whilst experimenting on another version of it. Hit the “create” button to intelligently randomize one or more chords in a sequence. Chord types has been upraded to 30. Under the hood, the programming has been refreshed to take account of these new chord shapes, so that the resulting progressions always sound musical and natural. This also applies to the refreshed and expanded selection of factory presets.

Global or Granular

Use the global controls to adjust inversions, length, speed and root key of the entire playback, making on-the-fly adjustments to your entire riff a simple process. To get into the detail, click a segment for more granular control over chord shapes (including major/minor variations), individual inversions and velocity.

Simple Segments

With up to 8 segments, each containing a different chord type, you can choose to trigger between one and four notes per chord. The playback of these segments syncs to the host BPM of your DAW, always remaining locked in time. You can add and subtract segments with ease and change a range of parameters, independently for each segment.

Essential Parameters

Each segment can be programmed with inversions from -6 to +6, transforming chord shapes and placing the root note inside of the chord itself. Experiment by pushing the lowest notes up an octave, or highest notes down an octave, turning your chords inside out.

Just The Tonic

With your chords loaded and a segment chosen, use the expanding range of chord shapes in the centre of the interface to choose between 30 different chord types: Tonic, Subdominant or Dominant. From simple triads, right through to more complex shapes, let CHORDS PRO find the right notes for any related chord. Fancy a Cmadd9 or an Am7b5? Just let this plugin find the correct notes and work out the difficult stuff for you.

Export MIDI

To get the chord progressions into your own projects, simply drag and drop from the plugin to your DAW. Then you can edit to your heart's content, chopping up the MIDI, transposing and twisting the CHORDS PRO suggestions to suit your own style of music.

Powerful Presets

CHORDS PRO includes a huge number of factory preset progressions, all labeled in detail. These are useful musical motifs to get you up and running quickly which can eventually become the basis for whole tracks.
