Harmonybeam

Harmonybeam is a Max for Live chord plugin for Ableton Live built for fast, musician-minded chord progression writing. Type or generate progressions, explore smart context-aware chord suggestions, apply automatic voice leading, all while everything is instantly synced to MIDI clips.

Features:

• Type chord symbols as text and watch them sync live to a MIDI clip in Arrangement or Session View...
• ...or generate new, professional-sounding progressions from scratch under three genre umbrellas (Classical, Pop + EDM and Jazz + Neo Soul).
• Tweak progressions further with an intelligent Chord Wheel that shows you intelligent, context-aware suggestions from a data model based on decades of real music.
• Choose between several different voicing styles - from minimal to anthemic, multi-octave voicings - and activate Auto Voice Leading to let Harmonybeam find the smoothest and most musical transitions between chords, no piano roll fiddling required.
• Apply over 40 rhythm patterns to the whole progression in one click.
• Use the MIDI mapping to trigger chord blocks and even add and modify chords all from your MIDI controller.

Regular updates, including new chord progression generators, are on the way, and are free for life for all customers.
