The first ChordKit
Sixteen sounds in a four-by-four grid. Four layers, four chord positions, played from pads or keys. A software instrument for macOS and Windows.
Each row is a layer. Bass holds the bottom. Chords carry the harmony. Sound A and Sound B colour it. Each column is a chord position, so the four pads in a column are always in the same chord.
Play a column and you get a full arrangement. Play across a row and the progression moves. Change the key and every pad follows.
Click a pad to hear the real kit. On a keyboard, 1 to 4 play whole columns, Q W E R play the bass row.
Ocean inside Ableton Live, played from a pad controller. With sound.
Every ChordKit is its own plugin with its own sounds and its own face. Ocean is out now. The rest are being made, one at a time.
A sampler changes a sound's length when it changes its pitch. ChordKits doesn't have to.
Move transpose and every sample is rendered again at the new pitch in the background, then swapped in. Nothing in the audio path is a pitch shifter, so there's no added latency and no per-note cost. Twelve semitones either way.
Chromatic mode plays one pad across the keyboard. With Warp on, the pitch changes and the length doesn't. Warp Speed then stretches a sound from a quarter of its length to four times, still pitch locked.
Samples carry no note metadata. ChordKits reads each one and finds the fundamental, so chromatic mode is in tune without you typing a thing.
The whole instrument responds in a bar. The deeper controls are there when you want them and out of the way when you don't. Every clip loops quietly. Click one to hear it.
Each macro moves several parameters at once, tuned for this kit. Ocean's are Depth, Current, Swell and Mist.
Filter, plate reverb, tape delay, stereo delay, chorus, flanger, and a filter LFO. All global, post-mix, safe to automate.
Level and drive per layer, plus sends to reverb, delay, chorus and flanger.
Pad mode, a chromatic keyboard, and the computer keyboard all play the same kit. Any knob learns a MIDI controller in one move.
Logic Pro, Ableton Live, FL Studio, and any host that loads VST3 or Audio Units. Or open it on its own.
