Title: Song chords - realtime chord input
Post by: v.muller on May 20, 2015, 08:43:19 PM
When I press Play song button in the "Song chords" window I can use my keyboard for changing of the chord symbol.
I would like to use it for real-time chord input, but it changes still the same (selected) beat.
Could it change the currently played (pink square) beat?

For realtime chord input, there is the CHORD LOOP feature, but the chords are not displayed in the SONG CHORDS grid

The song chord grid could be simply filled using the real time record function.
Would it be hard to implement it?
I mean this:
If the "Song chord grid" is running, chord changes will be applied to the nearest beat start instead of selected bar.
It could be the most natural way to fill the Song chord grid.

Or maybe I will add a Import the CHORD LOOP into SONG CHORDS
So you record your chords with the CHORD LOOP feature, then with one button, you import the chords into the SONG CHORDS

Note that you can have chords at half time in the CHORD LOOP, but not in the SONG CHORD

I for one would really appreciate an "Import the CHORD LOOP into SONG CHORDS" feature!   :)

Yes Dan , I would also very much appreciate this feature.
Importing/exporting the Chord data if possible would be amazing!
(for the cases where User already has Chords in XF midi(from Yamaha Arranger) , Music XML file(Notation) ,
or Chord Chart(Chordpro etc) - or would like to export Chords from vArranger to use elsewhere.
Even just the ability to paste in the Chords(in the correct format for vArranger) into a text file which
could be opened by vArranger would be super useful.

For song chord I think another feature, the possibility to put some marker for verse/chorus, pehaps it's possible.
