ChordBud 2 AUv3 MIDI Sequencer

A MIDI chord sequencer with scale comparison, editable patterns, chord modifiers and standalone or AUv3 workflows.

Our take

Consider for musicians exploring harmonic sequences

Patterns can keep separate keys and scales, allowing experiments with borrowed chords and sequenced changes.

Keep in mind: The standalone description mentions a piano sampler, while the AUv3 plugin is explicitly MIDI-only and needs an instrument for sound. Host compatibility and routing require checking.

What you can do

  • Compare chords across more than forty described scales
  • Edit chord length, position, inversion and velocity
  • Save multiple patterns and trigger them with MIDI CC
  • Connect supported virtual, Bluetooth or hardware MIDI

Good for

  • Musicians with a compatible instrument or host who want an editable progression tool.

Consider alternatives for

  • People expecting a complete workstation or the AUv3 plugin to generate audio by itself.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 13.0.
  • The standalone description mentions a piano sampler, while the AUv3 plugin is explicitly MIDI-only and needs an instrument for sound. Host compatibility and routing require checking.

Privacy & permissions

MIDI connections and external instruments have their own permissions and data paths. The capture does not establish remote music processing.
