Hi Guys

I've recently moved to Mac. There's a software I use called Bomes keyboard to play my chords. Is there a software like this that can create 1 key chords from external midi keyboard?

Thanks

 

Logic ? lol When you push Caps Lock button, you can play with your computer's keyboard

 

You misunderstood. Bomes keyboard let's you play chords with 1 midi note...so its possible to have amazing chords without even knowing how to play the piano. I am looking for a mac alternative.

 

Yeah ok...

To be honest I hate those kind of things ! How can anyone can become a good musician with pushing one button... *no*

Good luck ;)

 

yes i agree

why don't you play guitar hero, record it and pretend you made it? it's almost the same ;)

good luck

 

@ mfx,

Below, you'll find various links that I hope will help you in some way. These diverse programs aren't all 'pure' MIDI Keyboards, but all are related to MIDI Computer Music as MIDI Chord Recognition, MIDI Arrangers,... and above all for MAC !

VMPK Virtual MIDI Piano Keyboard
and the MAC version Download Link can be found here (the first one) :
VMPK v0.4.0 MAC Version Download

SimpleChord v4.2.2

MyMusicTools - Recognition Chords & Misc

Good luck in your quest !

 

I understand what you're looking for mfx. Perhaps this will help if using Logic

Thanks. Well it is not cheating because you still have to programme them. Not all of us learnt the piano...a lot of well known musicians outsource piano players. I just can't. To the other guys thanks.

 

How can you say that you program them if a program programs the notes for you?

How can you even create a song without mentally create it before you record it? Thats the creating process, to come up with ideas.

If you ask this I'm guessing that you make techno? (most basic and easiest music style that i know of, can you even call it music? ;) )

 

@Anton

Soulful House. You have to know the chord notes first and you can basically transpose them and create progressions in midi!!!!

I know what sounds good and don't rely on the computer to work for me.

I just wonder what you do that makes you so judgemental....
