We have seen in the effervescent word of computer music a lot of very exiting products entering the market over the past few years.
Computer aided music creation is now accessible at affordable cost to any budding musician or producer.
Among the products that have been released, there are already some effective software tools to assist the process of chords progression and harmony writing. But these tools are rather complex, have no physical interfaces with real time playability, and are therefore not adapted to musician that are looking for an instantaneous rewarding experience, or that needs a tool that can be used as an instrument for their Live performances.
Additionally, a lot of powerful MIDI standalone hardware controllers have been developed. Ergonomics and responsiveness is key factor to ensure a great user experience, because musicians needs highly intuitive and reactive tools to let them express their emotions in their performances, and these controllers are very good at that, to play drums for example. But the stock musical functionalities of most of these solutions are fairly limited, if not, non-existing at all. Surely, some advanced powerhouse hardware controllers exist, with extended capabilities, including in the field of chords generation, but these controller are quite expensive, and, somehow, limited by their hardware specifications as far as computing power and memory are concerned.
We can finally see a big tendency moving toward to hybrid highly integrated hardware / software solutions, where the software power and flexibility is enhanced by a physical dedicated hardware controller, that provides to the user a physical entry point and a direct visual feedback of his actions. But some of these solutions are pretty expensive, and limited in harmony capabilities also.
KordsKontrol has been developed in the spirit of this hybrid approach, that blends the best of both software and hardware worlds.
It is compatible with a large selection of well-known MIDI pads controllers from the most iconic brands in Music industry. Not only the compatible controllers are very responsive, and flexible enough to let KordsKontrol take control of their superpowers, but they are also widely used in Music production today. It is likely that you already own one!
With the additional software layer provided by KordsKontrol, these popular controllers become not only highly intuitive real-time composition tools, but also performance solutions for Studio or Live use, making it the ultimate musical companions to unleash your creativity and express yourself!
After many years of intense development, KordsKontrol now brings the Music harmony at your fingertips
I am very exited to let you discover in the next pages what it can do for you!
