I’ve been playing around recently with Cubase’s Chord Track and also the Arranger track. I feel like I’m a little late to this party because I’ve always written music without this kind of thing but I have to say, they are so powerful!
Firstly, the Chord track. There are probably people here that would scoff the idea of using such a thing but I’m finding it very useful to try out chord sequences with things I can’t play due to my piano playing abilities being rather Dogs Brown. I’m also eager to try out the Chord track in conjunction with Spitfire’s Symphonic Motion Strings (currently downloading). I’m thinking it could lead to some interesting results.
Secondly, The arranger track. The amount of times I get creatively stuck and want to try quick arrangements but can’t because I’m not too slow or the inspiration gets lost by the time I start copying parts to places in the timeline I o build various arrangements. Quite frankly, I’m kicking myself for not using it sooner. I always related it to song writing when you have a song structure but it works for so much more. And the flatten option that turns the parts into midi data is fantastic.
Just wondering if anyone else loves these Cubase features? Probably not as I’m a musical cripple and you can likely just play what you want when you want.
