Chord generators
I’m looking for a good chord generator. I’ve narrowed it down to these three. Does anyone have experiences with them?
Harmony bloom
Piano motifs
Spacewalk
Comments
I'm not exactly sure what you're after but to me Piano Motifs is the closest to a Chord Generator. But really more of a piano riff creator to me. Spacewalk I don't know but is seems a bit targeted at a specific genre. Harmony Bloom is cool but more of a melody machine. Perhaps ironically the same developer has an app called Chord Generator.
Perhaps look at Scaler 2?
The new Space Walk is good.
Other options:
Chordbud 2 by Cem Olcay
Chordjam by Audio Modern
Progressions by 4pockets
ChordPolyPad isn’t generative but it’s my favorite chord centric app. It’s easy to drag and drop chords you want to pads.
Chord roulette is pretty cool - needs notes feeding in, but will generate chords from them
The dude who makes Harmony Bloom actually has an app called Chord Generator. It had a bit of a learning curve but it's pretty cool.
Suggestor2 is another one not mention by others in this thread.
Edit. Piano Motifs is kinda king in the genre.
@Pxlhg regarding piano motifs - I wouldn’t have thought of it as a chord generator. How would you set it up to be geared towards chords? Setting the accompanying track to chord mode and rely on that output? Seems like a great use and I’ve been diving into Piano Motifs more.
I have used many motifs in e.g NanoStudio where you (can) get 4 different channels where one is chords, you can even set the output to triads I think, if you wanna keep it down to earth. But, I get the question - it's so much more.
Songen is another cool one, that does more than chords, not mentioned a lot since it's subscription but it has grown wildly since the first release.
The developer of Harmony Bloom also has an app called Chord Generator. I dont own that one but it should be added to the list.
Also QuantiChord could be another option
ChordPolyPad<—not mentioned yet. great for “generation” PAGES of chords and voicing which can be triggered via midi or tapped on
Tonality has similar functionality but clunkier to edit and trigger
Chord generator - great generator easy triggering. UNIQUE in that it offers strumming with periodicity and velocity control
Harmony Bloom - more of and arp melody texture maker
Chord Roulette is great for nice surprises and has some of the same ideation of the new Spacewalk
Scaler 2 does A LOT including chord suggestion alteration and almost composition. Hopefully the newest iteration comes to the pad because it’s basically a full composition machine.
Define 'good'. What are you looking for?
Thanks for all the answers.
I’m leaning towards piano motifs since it’s the only one that also works on a phone.
ChordPolyPad
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/chordpolypad/id694599930
iphone compatible
It’s twice the price of the others.
Worth it?
