Another mention for Navichord
Just thought I would mention this brilliant app at the top level of the forum, rather than buried in another thread.

Was excited to get home tonight and spend the evening bashing away at the new Waldorf Attack. Ended up playing with Navichord for most of it instead. As a guitar player it gives me a similar means to write chord based songs but holds your hand a little too, if you need it. recommended.
Comments
I was going to get this earlier but got distracted by Attack. Maybe I should get both...
Navichord is a nice app.
Yeah @monzo, Attack is a big deal. No denying that but I was too tired to make much sense of it. I wanted it to sing and couldn't work it out. In contrast Navichord is so simple/well thought out I had a buzz playing it.
How easy is getting the vocoder to work? I could never suss that one out in Nave, and would like to get Attack to sing some dirty words
No dirty words here either
I gave up
Oh dear, that's put me off - the comments in the Attack thread aren't selling it to me either. Think I'll put this on hold for now and have another look at Navichord instead...
Sorry @monzo. Didn't mean to put you off. It's just I was expecting to be knocking out twisted ABBA cover versions by now.. Will try again tomorrow.
Navichord reflects the true soul of each individual player (I've decided). Mine's quite lovely, thanks for asking. It's a fine addition and is already living out on its own in the paddock, unconfined by a folder etc.
No don't worry, it's several glasses if wine past impulse buy here now anyway. Navichord sounds like a sensible one for tomorrow, and I could still have my head turned by a Doug Attack vid
@monzo
When Doug Attacks..... I can see the headline now. Still not better than my favorite from this month/year so far. Yes, I know, a dope at heart:
http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2015/jun/11/scoolboy-work-experience-discovers-planet
I lived a couple of miles from there for a year or so, looking up was probably a good option...
Wondered if this app also automatically generates chord progressions... or is there a Chord Generator app?
@Musikman4Christ there is no sequencing as such. It is more of a performance app but it does help you create interesting progressions by logically placing related chords together and you can lock to a scale by pressing the pin button or accessing lots of more interesting scales in the menu.
@Musikman4Christ Our friend @jocphone is right, it is 'performance' driven probably, which for me means 'performing' into Gadget mostly. I am not much of a performer/live player, but this has an exceptional feel...
Thanks guys, what I meant was like say for example I want to get ideas for chord progression to make a song. Like say I wanted to make a song in the key of Gmajor I was thinking maybe this app could generate a chord progression not necessarily play it but instead suggest it.
There's a website I found that does this but it doesn't work with out Java on the iPad.
Hope I made some sense.

This is the original thread for "Navichord" we are begin with.
Buy this app with Synthmaster for advanced and beginners alike..
You will be amazed that You are no dummy pianist anymore!
I have been playing E-L-S-A through this. Like an apparently happy home where bad things are bound to happen at any moment. Lovely.
@Musikman4Christ Sounds like ProChords would do what you describe. No audiobus, but it does have midi out if you don't like its piano sound. I wouldn't recommend it for performance, but for composing it's very handy. Kind of like a rhyming dictionary for chords.
ChordPolyPro suggests related (random) chords although you would need to put them together yourself.
Was going to ask for strumming, but realising that simplicity is one of the key pluses here. But played through StepPolyArp = instant strumming or arpeggios! That's my day planned.
Try the app 'suggester'. It does what you want I think.

Was taking about Neo-Soulkeys elsewhere and it led me to trying it with Navichord. Very nice and, well, soulful. Some good four.eight second trills for Gadget....
Thanks guys will check it out.
I tried ChordBot's songomatic feature but didn't give long enough progression.
@Jocphone, thanks for reviving the thread!
@Musikman4Christ, finding chords in certain key is very simple in Navichord - select scale, all in-scale keys become highlighted on both piano and chord views. Then you can freely explore the selected chord area and pick the chords that only belong to your scale. Minor and major triads are one touch, so with 7 touches you cover all min/maj triads that belong to the selected scale.
Thans Navichord. Will check it out!
I also got the Chord suggester app, pretty interesting.
Spent half an hour playing Neosoul via Navichord last night. Recorded it all in AS, chopped it up perfectly in Twisted Wave and find myself this morning with 5 new kits in Bilbao. I know the proof will be in what I can make with them all, but adds a real feel and (melancholy) flavor (EDIT: to Gadget)...big supporter of this app; pretty but also immediately useful.
Do any of you folks also have Fiddlewax Pro? I ask because I went ahead and bought Navichord, and I prefer Fiddlewax Pro so far to play chords in a key.
That's got to be encouraging but super-frustrating for @adamkumpf. Also illuminating (in an irritating kind of way). Here's an app -perhaps- that Fiddlewax offers more than, but Navichord immediately does something that the average fool (self) can open and start playing other stuff in the background without thinking twice about and 10 seconds later you're luxuriating in music you're actually making and can use right there. The definition of flow. For some of us. I grant you.
