Description

ChordMaps2 is a MIDI controller app for iPad enabling songwriters, music educators, and students to explore melodies, bass lines, and chord progressions.

ChordMaps2 is a music app for iPad which allows musicians, songwriters, music educators, and students to explore and improvise chord progressions, melody lines, and bass lines, in both major and minor keys, most of the time tapping with just one or two fingers.

The most powerful feature of ChordMaps2 is that users can explore and play common chord progressions by touching chord locations on "Musical Maps."

You can work with ChordMaps2 as a...

Songwriter - to explore melody lines, bass lines, and chord progressions when you are away from your guitar or keyboard.

Music Educator - to demonstrate principles of music theory, (including major and minor scales, diatonic and secondary chords, common chord progressions like IV-V-I, ii-V-I, I-vi-IV-V, I-V-vi-IV, etc.) You can also create spontaneous ear-training exercises, and explore melodic lines and chord progressions with students in an interactive environment.

MIDI Musician - to tap out chord sequences and hear them played by one or more of the synth apps on your iPad, or you can send the MIDI information out through a MIDI interface to a computer running a digital audio workstation (DAW) like GarageBand or Logic Pro.

How ChordMaps2 Works...

ChordMaps2 is a MIDI controller. It works by being paired with a synthesizer app that generates sound. (Example synth apps include ThumbJam, SampleTank, bs-16i, iM1, and many more.) ChordMaps2 sends the MIDI signal; the synth app responds to the MIDI information and creates the audio.

Video demonstrations of ChordMaps2 are found at the website. (Click the Developer Website link or visit Mugglinworks.com/ChordMaps2).

What’s New

Version 1.30

This update adds a new option—"Editable Chords and Progressions."

Now you can create your own collections of chords and choose exactly which notes you would like to use in each chord. This also allows you to create the voice leading you are looking for as you move from chord to chord.

Each "Page" you create can hold up to 45 different chords. There are 32 pages available. (Pages can also be saved to the Files folder and loaded back later, so you are not limited to 32 pages. You can design as many as you like.)

IMPORTANT: Please download the pdf called "UnderstandingTheChordMaps2Screen." You can find this pdf at the Developer Website link or by visiting ChordMaps2.com. (The explanation for "Editable Chords and Progressions" begins on Page 10.)

No hay nada igual, es increíble, y para mí es imprescindible

No hay nada igual, es increíble, y para mí es imprescindible. Me da hasta vergüenza pagar tan poco por algo que me va a resultar tan útil y que está tan bien pensado. No puedo estar lo suficientemente agradecido a éste desarrollador, porque no hay nada parecido. Aunque no la he usado demasiadas horas todavía, esta App será el centro de mi creatividad sin duda alguna, junto con la versión para iPhone. Hay muchas aplicaciones de acordes y escalas, pero no hay nada como estas dos Apps que lo hacen tan fácil e intuitivo, especialmente al combinar ésta fantástica interfaz con Apps de música de terceros o el propio GarageBand. Es que te pones a pulsar en la pantalla como loco y pareces un pianista después del décimo año de Conservatorio. Hay otras aplicaciones más coloridas, con distinta funcionalidad, etc…, pero no hay nada como los Apps ChordMaps2 y ChordMapsMidi que te permita dejar volar tu imaginación. Yo la uso básicamente para probar distintas progresiones de acordes, y la versión para iPad realmente es una delicia una vez que consigues aprender lo que hace cada botón, pues la ayuda en pantalla se queda muy corta. Luego si quieres puedes grabar la progresión de acordes, bajo y melodía en la aplicación que prefieras, incluyendo GarageBand. En cualquier caso hay excelentes videos en YouTube para que puedas dominar ésta herramienta sin tener que leer siquiera. Para usar con GarageBand en el mismo iPad/iPhone es necesario arrancar de fondo una App como FreEWI o similar, para hacer de puente MIDI entre las dos Apps, pero no es necesaria al utilizar KORG Module por ejemplo. Como dice en la App, es necesario activar el Background Audio, Segundo Plano, o similar, de cualquier App que tenga los sonidos, ya sea GarageBand, KorgModule, Moog, lo que sea. También se puede usar para controlar GarageBand en un Mac por ejemplo, para grabar los acordes o tocar en vivo.
