    Chordion is best for that, but get all three!!

    that is correct...I have all three and I love CPP for what i do..but it cant play melody on onscreen keyboard.

    But you can assign "notes" you want to play on CPP to play "simple" melodies

    e.g intro riff stand by me, pentatonic My girl riff

    I have both Navichord and ChordPolyPad

    I find it easier to bang out chords on CPP and come up with interesting voicings.

    Congrats to both

    thats because CHord PP and can do great octave voicings and inversions..

    as for navichord you can do only 3 note voicing when you EDIT a pad...

    e.g a simple G D/F# Em run is very easy to accomplish with CPP

    Not exactly. In Navichord you can enter more than 3 notes and then adjust octave for each note. Up to 5 notes per chord. It can't do bass notes for now, but it will still treat you bass chord nicely allowing octave change for every note.

  • Bass note would rock! ;)

  • I actually meant bass note I guess ...basically in a preset there is a bass note and three note chords.. when I edit .. the bass note disappear .. hence I have to adjust the entire pad preset .. since some have bass notes .. and some don’t.. I tried manually adding but it’s difficult to select chord circles with a bass note.. eg i want D DFA instead I get D ADF

    Ah, you are talking about same note, different octaves. True, it doesn't work very well in that case.

    What Tickletiger said.
    Exactly.

  • ChordPolyPaddddd

    the trouble is - currently ( and i've as you know - sent you much feedback on this ) if one has carefully set up some nice sounding voicing and inversions that go further than triads in a progression in NC- all it takes to lose all the hard work is to decide to transpose the chord. Then all the voicing info gets lost and the chord often jumps to a different octave range. Like shuffling of the cards.

    For example I might want some fancy 4 note voicing of C major 7th - but then copy and paste that chord to another pad and then decide i want to transpose it up to E. When one changes the root using the root spin-dial all the voicing get scrambled and one has to set up the voicing laboriously all over again.
