Hi All,

I was just wondering if anyone can recommend a tool, (standalone or VST) which helps to identify a chord being played and maybe even provide some suggested chord progression in real time, (hope that makes sense)...

OH and btw a Tool that is provided free ;)

Are you aware of Chord Analyzer it's a Midi Plug in (MFX) already in Sonar.

It's the note position on the staff - top block of 5 lines, 4 spaces is the treble clef area with ledger lines above and below, bottom block is bass clef areas with ledger lines below.

That had me perplexed, but it's actually quite obvious when you know.

The AAS StrumAcoustic (AcousticStrum?) plugin that came with either X1 or X2 has a chord readout feature if that helps.

Nothing wrong with the chord analyser, but the midiChordsanalyser has a much larger font size that can be seen without using a electron microscope and its free...
