Chords Only won't disable -help

Posted Mon, 2014-08-25 - 04:02

Hello,

I'm a one week old demo user. Currently there is one thing I am not solving...

I have one instrument with a fixed / repeated figure. I would like to have that figure playing while I sample various chords from the pallette. Additionally, I noticed that Chords Only mode won't turn off and I'm wondering if this might be related. If so how do I disable Chords Only?

Many Thanks

Welcome to the forum!

Check out Container >> Make Sketch. This will turn your selected container into a live Sketch that you can play in palettes and progression editors.

To enable/disable chords-only mode, use the Playback menu. You can also select a predefined Sketch there.

Thank you Andre, I should have been more clear. I know about Make Sketch and the Chords-Only mode in Playback menue. The problem is that it won't disable and so the entire system is stuck in chords-only mode. I suppose I'll try to reinstall..

If you select a Sketch, the chords-only mode will disable. Both are mutually exclusive.

Hi. Here is my latest track made 100% using Synfire, then mastered in Presonus Studio One. I then converted this into a music video, hence cinematic: I'm not hearing much music (...)
