Chord Track Transpose Mode

asked Aug 28, 2020 in MIDI Editing by kennethkovach (460 points)
The chord track is one of my favorite features of studio one, but sometimes the parallel, narrow and bass modes do not do exactly what I was looking for. I propose a new mode where all midi notes in the track are transposed by the difference between the chord set for the song in the key signature and the chord in the chord track.

For example, if the song is in the key of C and the first measure of the chord track was also C (or any variant of C), the notes in that measure would not be transposed. But if in the second measure the chord track was D, then the notes of the second measure would be transposed 2 semitones.

Similarly, if the song is in the key of B flat and the first measure of the chord track was also C (or any variant of C), the notes in that measure would be transposed 1 semitone. But if in the second measure the chord track was D, then the notes of the second measure would be transposed 3 semitones.

To make this easier, I think that new songs could have a default Key signature of C (or a preference for the user to pick their own default key signature)

Thank you
