Working in the Chord Memorizer Window
Double-clicking on a chord memorizer opens the Chord Memorizer window, where you
can set up chord definitions.
The top keyboard is used to input and display the incoming note, and the lower
keyboard is used to input and display the assigned chords. Notes can be entered with
the mouse, or a MIDI keyboard.
Remember to only use notes that fall within the Key Limit range on the top keyboard.
Also remember that you can only define one chord for each of the 12 pitch classes (C,
C#, D, and so on). You can, of course, use more than one chord memorizer object to
define more chord types for each pitch class.
To enter chords with the mouse
1 Click the input note on the top keyboard.
All notes in the associated chord will be inverted on the bottom keyboard.
2 Click notes on the bottom keyboard until the inverted notes of the desired chord are
shown.
You don’t need to stay within the same octave as the input note.
When you have entered the desired notes for your chord, select another input note (on
the top keyboard), or close the Chord Memorizer window.
To enter chords from your MIDI keyboard:
1 Play the input note.
2 Click the Listen checkbox in the Chord Memorizer window.
The lower keyboard is inverted, indicating its readiness to record.
