[Free] Detailed usage of chord progression tool Ripchord

This is yosi from Chillout with Beats.

What kind of free chord progression generation tool has tried.

You can do something like this. (Piano is Kontak standard library)

I thought it was a little difficult to understand how to install it, so I will explain it in detail.

~~In order to use presets (codesets) with Ripchord, you need to create an account with Trackbout.~~

It seems that you no longer need to create an account.

Download Ripchord.

When you unzip the downloaded file, it has the following structure.

Ripchord is VST3, so if you store "Ripchord.vst3" under the OS folder in the VST3 folder, the installation is completed.

In the case of PC, the default folder will be as follows.

C: \ Program Files \ Common Files \ VST3

Launch Ripchord from your DAW and click on the gear icon.

Click "import a preset file" in the dialog that opens.

Navigate to the folder that contains your downloaded code set, select it and click Open.

This will load the code set.

Ripchord itself doesn't come with a sound source, so you'll need to connect MIDI OUT to another VSTi.

Here, proceed on the FL Studio screen. (I think other DAWs have the same feeling)

Set the gear icon "Setting"-> "Output port" on the screen of Ripchord to any number.
(This number is OK if it is the same as VSTi to be set later)

This time I will use Kontakt from Komplete Kontrol.

The thing to do is the same, set the "Input port" to the "Output port" of Ripchord.

that's all.

You can register the chord progression yourself.

Click "edit".

Select (1) the MIDI note to be sent to Ripchord on the "input" side and (2) the MIDI note (chord) to be output to the "output" side.

Enter the code name in (3).

By repeating this, it is possible to prepare a code for the number of "input".

To be honest, I have a strong sense of disappointment.The user activity is not very active, and the number of code sets is small.

The code set also contains only 3 or 4 codes inside, so it seems that it can not be used very much.

I have high expectations for the future.

If you do your best to make it yourselfscalerI think it's better to buy it.

scalerContains a considerable amount of chord progressions without knowing the chord theory.

And it is highly recommended that you can easily rearrange them.
