    @ beta testers

    I'm thinking of releasing soon. At the moment I know I still need to:

    • Finish the recorder in the chord/scale AU
    • Finalize state saving for the new settings
    • Enable latch with the strum bar
    • Fix dark mode colors
    • Allow deleting/reorganizing/saving in the palette
    • Work on VoiceOver support for new features
    • Improve some of the default guitar chord chart displays, potentially add barre chords

    Anything else?

    @Krupa Thanks for your input there!

    Have you tried out the new CC mapping?

    I’ll have to check that ou5 too.

  • @Poppadocrock Okay great! It's accessed via the three vertical blue dots in the chord pad AU.

    Think that covers everything - looking really good. Use it virtually every day!

    Thanks for that

  • The latest Beta with both Randomise Attack and Randomise Velocity for the Chord Pads is great. Makes for very authentic sounding chords!

  • @charalew Glad to hear it! I was pretty happy with the results

  • @Poppadocrock @Krupa How did the CC controls work out for you? Still unsure about the best interface for them.

    Haven’t tried yet but plan on doing so in the next day or so. I’ll post something or message you when I do. Thanks.

  • @charalew @Krupa @espiegel123 @(other beta testers/guitarists)

    Tonality now supports barre chords!

    I'm working on making the default results more in line with standard, "accepted" voicings for common chords. If you're on the beta and have time, please let me know if you come across any chords for which...

    • The default results (on the table/list) aren't what you would expect
    • The chord displays with a barre but shouldn't
    • The chord should require a barre but one isn't indicated

    Thanks!

  • Wow!

    That's pretty impressive.

    Can't wait for the update!

    Can't think of anything just now - will give the latest beta a run through today but all working well for me.

    Looks really good on first impressions but I won’t have chance for a deep dive until next week... thanks for the relentless great work!

    @TonalityApp Sorry - spoke too soon. Sent some feedback / crash reports through testflight.

    Uke chords?

  • @Krupa No worries!
    @enkaytee Thanks looking into them now
    @Jocphone You can change to various ukulele tunings (and other instruments) in settings! Let me know if you need more instructions

  • @enkaytee Fixed! Do you remember if the chords you had selected caused a large number of chord charts to be generated in the right pane?

    @TonalityApp It definitely happened with C Maj so yes...but to be honest it's happening on every one I try...

  • @enkaytee That's not good... I'll go ahead and push the fix as soon as possible. I wonder why no one else has encountered this. Did you change the chart generation rules to something particularly permissive?

    No - literally straight out of the box settings. Still happening for me on 7.3(117). Also getting that strange ghost keyboard popping up if I press the chord name. Think I sent a screen shot of that earlier? I'm going to delete and reinstall from testflight

  • @enkaytee Okay I'll do some more testing. If anyone else runs into this please let me know – I haven't been able to recreate it yet.

    The ghost keyboard is on my radar. It appears when the drag and drop functionality is used (note that if you don't release your finger, you can drag that keyboard onto the chord palette). The issue is that on some iOS versions the system doesn't properly cancel the drag gesture and keeps drawing the generated preview image.

  • @enkaytee Aha... by the chord palette do you mean the whole right side of the screen?

    @TonalityApp said:

    @TonalityApp - yes - the sequence is, select a chord from the left side to display the various charts and related chords in the right, then tap the expand button at the top left of the right side pane - hope that makes sense! Sorry for the confusion - I hadn't realised the palette was the actual pop up window - my bad!

  • edited September 2020

    @enkaytee Got it! The confusion came out of the fact that I named the little green square that allows you to collect chord charts the "chord palette" and thought that was what you were referring to.

    Are you positive you're on build 117? Just checking since I got another crash report for 116 but none for 117 yet. (Edit: just got it, never mind.)

    I only just now noticed a request to look at the default chord results. I’ll look into that today.

    One tricky issue and I am not sure if you want this reported is that for a lot of chords, the most common/most useful voicings/fingerings are not all ones at the lower frets. For “movable” chords (like the common four or five string jazz voicings), the most useful voicings will be at whatever frets those voicings can be made.

  • @espiegel123 Thanks! Did you see my recent email with a potential solution?

  • @TonalityApp said:

    Must have missed that, fantastic! So many tunings and instruments too. That is going to be really useful for me.

    Will have a play with the ones I know. Are you wanting corrections? I just noticed your E chord isn't what I normally use and I think is correct (I know these chords can be open to interpretation)

  • @Jocphone Definitely to the corrections! I’m still working on tuning the default results (since they’re all generated algorithmically rather than through a database). You can send me any at [email protected]

  • @TonalityApp said:
    @espiegel123 Thanks! Did you see my recent email with a potential solution?

    That solution you proposed (allowing some settings to influence what shows up as the default voicings) is a helpful addition for someone who has enough knowledge to know what voicing they are looking for. For a beginner who doesn’t know basic chord voicings yet, they wouldn’t know what criteria to set up. The optimal desired default set might include voicings at a variety of frets. For example, Dmaj7. Ideally, there are three root version that a beginner would want to know about in the default option set:

    • the voicing with a open D (4th string), A, C#,F#
    • The voicing on strings five through 2 (and the related barre on strings five through 1) that is at the fifth fret
    • The voicing at the 10th fret (6th string D, 4th string C#, 3rd string, F#, 2nd string A)

    P.s. I also realize that this might not be very do-able in the near-term. So, I don’t mean it as a criticism.
