Chord Dock Lite (Free)

Chord Dock Lite is a chord track-style plug-in for building, visualizing, and sharing chord progressions on a timeline.

Write chord progressions directly in your DAW, organize sections such as Verse and Chorus, and keep the harmonic structure of the whole song in view while you work.

Core workflow (Lite):
- Visual chord placement on a timeline
- Section-based arrangement and editing
- Section Clips / Focus Edit
- Save and load progressions in Chord Dock's own format
- Instant MIDI drag export
- Arranger Mode demo in Chord Dock v2.0.

Lite covers the core chord-track workflow of Chord Dock v2.0. It also lets you try the Arranger Mode demo, including the Setup / Performance / Song pages, with 90 seconds of playback and Pads 1-3 per part.

If you want deeper harmonic editing and generation, Chord Dock Extended adds tension chords, slash chords, Circle of Fifths tools, reharmonization, and section-based Arpeggio / Bassline generation.

If you want the full Arranger workflow, Chord Dock Performance unlocks all pads, ChordPart per-part MIDI output, and Arranger MIDI export. Full Bundle includes both Extended and Performance features.
