01Overview

Chordjam is a music theory tool that creates chords and progression patterns in real time. Instead of building progressions by hand, you set the scale, chord types, voicing and rhythm, and the plugin randomizes combinations within those settings. Audiomodern describes the results as unpredictable but always musical. Chordjam is available in VST3, VST2, AU and AAX formats and works on both macOS and Windows.

03In depth

Chord Generation and Sequencer Workflow

Chordjam can generate random chords, trigger a new chord with every note you play, and run an intelligent sequencer engine that produces chord progression patterns. Its arp mode, shuffle and shift modes, and advanced infinity mode extend how these patterns evolve over time.

Everything syncs to your host tempo, and you can drag chords and patterns out as MIDI. Sequence range and motion settings, along with ranges for transposition, time-delay and velocity, let you shape how patterns move.

Control Over Voicing, Mapping and Output

Unique voicing parameters let you shape how each chord is spread across the keyboard. Quantization settings control timing, and a pads section is included for performance. A quick load preset section and chord progression and pattern presets give you starting points.

You can save and load your own patterns and send MIDI to any device, software or hardware. An advanced MIDI CC and mapping editor covers external control. Version 1.5 adds MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) support, which lets chords glide from one to another in real time or within sequencer progressions.
