Chordjam is a pretty nice plugin for me personally.
Most audio loops these days have keys, so you can usually find them.
However, the question of which chord to play from there (and how to hear it) is the wall that most beginners will encounter. (I don't know)
And even if I understand it, I think it's a rather troublesome task.
If you use Chordjam's scale recognition function, you need some sense of pitch, but you can easily make chord progressions by presenting chords that match the scale.
Even if it's a little sensible, it's a scale, so it's a level where you can use it if you can distinguish the dissonance because you can make a chord progression by searching for a sound that is difficult to dissonate and fits the loop.
Just by arranging them properly, it looks like this.
First of all, I will introduce how to use it that many people will want to use.
Advance preparation
MIDI plug-ins must be set to "MIDI in" and "MIDI out".
Chordjam settings
Since Chordjam is an output plug-in, set "MIDI out".
Set "Output port" to "0" from the gear icon.
Setting the sound source to sound (Sylenth 1 is used here)
Set "Input port" to "0" from the gear icon.
Detect scale with Chordjam
Load the audio file you want to know
Drag and drop the audio file onto Chordjam.
The scale is analyzed from the audio file.
A scale suggestion will be given, so if you know the key from the audio file name, select that key.
This alone will place the chords that match the scale on the keyboard.
I took a video of the flow.
Even if they are arranged properly, there is almost no dissonance.
How to use the Audiomodern code generation plug-in Chordjam ① Summary
I also read the manual, but it's quite deep.
There is also a sequence mode.
You can just write a MIDI file, but you can't read it.
I wrote it in a hurry, so I will write the next article after deepening my understanding.
Comment
Thank you for the article immediately!
I was curious about it, so I looked it up myself, but it seems interesting because it is excellent at randomization, or it can be randomized to the point where other plug-ins haven't touched it.
Randomize can be turned on and off in detail so that it can be said that randomization is the main function, so it seems that you can live well with other similar plug-ins.
The plugin name didn't come up yesterday, but it may even be upward compatible with Forager, as it even has the ability to assign codes and arpeggios to pads, like the Harvest Plugins Forager featured on this site.
(Forager also has a function that only Forager has, so you can live separately.)
The demo seems to have a lot of functions, so I think I'll probably buy it.
thank you for your comment.
Sorry for the late reply.
> Randomize can be turned on and off in detail so that it can be said that randomization is the main function, so it seems that you can live well with other similar plug-ins.
I think it is the heart of Chordjam that you can easily obtain a code that matches the scale with randomization.
You can live separately from other MIDI plug-ins and not waste them.
I feel that the Scaler suffers from functions. (Code that fits the scale)
Scaler is weak in randomness, but it has a lot of other functions.

Please make a purchase via this site!
I forgot to reply, but I bought it at AudioPluginDeals via the site, but if I buy it at the clicked destination, will it be reflected?I'm worried if I was able to make a successful purchase.
Also, I'm planning to buy Melodyne this month, but if I go to Plugin Boutique via the site and buy it, will it be an affiliate target?
I've never been an affiliate, so I'm not sure if I have to buy directly from the link, so I'd appreciate it if you could tell me.
I'm thinking of graduating from Essential because I've come up with a desire to mess up the vocal pitch and make it a different song.
Thank you!
If you buy it via the site, you will be eligible for affiliate marketing.
You don't have to buy it directly from the link.
(I think it was okay to make some transitions)
Certainly, there are many restrictions when it comes to Essential.
I'm wondering what kind of song it will be
Melodyne is the best for editing, but Auto-Tune seems to be better for vocal sound quality.
I thought I would do a little researchsleepfreaksWhen I looked at the article, Melodyne sounded the most natural.
Melodyne is strong.
Excuse me for comments.
I read this article and bought Chordjam.
I can't speak English at all, so I'm looking forward to an article on how to operate it.

thank you for your comment.
Thank you for purchasing Chordjam!
I will continue to write commentary articles, so please be patient.
Hello!
Thank you always for your support.
How to use FL Studio tutorial I always see and use it.
So, I also use Machine,
However, ChordJam cannot be used well.
I would appreciate it if you could teach me.
We apologize for the inconvenience, but please advise.
Good evening.
thank you for your comment.
Although it is a Machine, unfortunately MIDI plug-ins are not supported.
As a method of forcibly using it, there is a method of outputting MIDI data by dragging and dropping.
However, I can't recommend it because it's too troublesome.
All I have to do is wait until Maschine responds.
Thank you very much.
The midi plugin was NG.
It doesn't support VST3 either. .. ..
I will wait.
Thank you for always creating the Tutorial.
It's a little tricky method, but it may be usable.
(It takes a little time and effort, so there may be a problem with usability.)
If it goes well after verification, it will be published as an article, so please wait without expecting too much.
Thank you very much.
We look forward to seeing you.
I'm looking forward to it.
Sorry I made you wait.
I wrote an article.
If you use FL Studio as VSTi as a bridge, you can solve the MIDI routing problem, so you can use it.
It's a bit of a hassle, but it's a benefit to be able to use it within Maschine.

Thank you very much.
Thank you!Thank you!
That helps a lot.
I wrote both FL Studio and Minihost Modular.

I was also disappointed that I couldn't use MIDI plug-ins with Maschine.
But when I got a question and thought about it again, there was a way I could do it, so I'm thinking of using it.
If you hit the chord with the pad, you can make a slightly different feeling, so it seems to be useful.
I'm the one who should be thanking you.
Thank you always for your support.
Within FL Studio
How to set Native plugin as a sound source
Is there anything other than using Pacther?
We apologize for the inconvenience, but please teach.
Good evening.
I think it means how to use FL Native plug-ins such as FLEX with plug-ins such as ChordJam other than Patcher.
As far as I know, I can't.
Since it does not have MIDI input, it is a recognition that can only be used with Patcher.
Thank you very much.
Was that so?
It's enough to say that it's enough to connect with Patcher.
I'm looking forward to the continued Tutorial.
thank you for your reply.
Sure enough, but it's easier to send MIDI directly like other VSTs.
As a solution, I think it is easier to create a patcher preset and register it in the Plugin Data Base.
(I didn't write it myself, so I'll do it)
We update it every day, so please come and visit us again.
