Cool but hoping more interactive way
Been playing with ripchords and trying to find similar app for midi chord tool and got to here. The chord timeline is fine, but would be nice to have arpeggios, or maybe strumming and less or control random (based on current chord timeline), maybe also jazz chord and custom chords that can be interactive

Update
Scale hold to random. Plz.
Stuck Notes
Works well besides the fact I have disable the Auv after stopping play. Notes stay stuck on otherwise. Can you fix please. IOS 26 ipad air m4
Chords!
Adds so much to boring old single notes
Just brilliant!
I love Chordbud2. There are a number of similar apps but it’s so simple to use but still has a great deal of depth to it.
Extremely disturbing bug , for long time
There seems to be a bug in chordbud 2, when ever you change the key of the progression, after clicking done, the key of the progression changes automatically.
Trust me this will render Chordbud’s utility zero.
Please kindly solve the auto key changing bug.

Seems not finished product
Can’t step thru patterns. Can’t set to finish pattern before advancing esp problem with different lengths. Bought ChordBud and RhythmBud no manual no easy way to contact dev. Seems not finished and sadly can’t recommend

Missing Time Signature
How do you setup time signatures like 3/4, 6/8, etc. ?
TY Cem! One bug down, one to go.
I appreciate you fixing the playback bug where Chordbud2 now starts playing back on beat 1 in Cubasis. Thank you for that fix!
I’ve stumbled into another anomaly, which I presume to be an easy code fix. When changing a simple major triad chord to a b5 chord, ChordBud 2 is changing the chord to mb5. Huh? It was not a minor chord to begin with—all I want is the 5th lowered a half step so that the new chord formula is: 1, 3, b5
If it’s a minor chord to begin with, then sure, change it mb5 when I select b5, otherwise, leave the rest of the chord alone.
And, yes, I write music with those kind ofchords, as I’m sure filmmakers do, too.
Thanks, Cem!!
P.S. Notice I upgraded my rating for you fixing the playback bug. Much thanks for that fix.

Hello, the new version fixes that issue.
It doesn’t start playing on the 1st beat in Cubasis
Suggestion: Add a manual option to turn on/off Sync with the Host because the auto-syncing in the code isn’t functioning correctly.
The pointer that tracks where it’s playing never returns all the way to the beginning of the track when I use Rewind to Start in the Host Transporter.
This is a serious bug. Please fix this. This app used to work correctly, as shown in Leo’s 3 year old Tutorial. But now, it doesn’t work like that anymore.

Hello, the new version fixes that issue.
Really love this app
I have all the chord apps. This is the most intuitive and easy to use . Love using it with brain and bounce bud
Great app
Straightforward and easy to use , helps to get my creativity going
Class A sequencer from The Classiest Developer, in the iOS. Period.
Read the title!
A simple fix pls
please allow us to play our own chords in by hand instead of choosing the technical terms.
It'd make fun a lot more accessible 🙏

It was a terrible mistake, I’m sorry. The new version fixes the issue, thanks.
Tutorial doesn’t work
Start using it with the tutorial? Well, you get to the second balloon, and that’s where the tutorial stops working. “Let’s select one chord and start!” But while you can select one chord, or as many as you want, you can’t go any further. The balloon is supposed to be your “Next” button, but it’s dead—you can’t get past it, it does not work.

Hi, thanks for reporting that, I’ll fix this issue.
Chord options are still limited
Still lacking simple functions like omitting fifths, or adding specific notes/intervals to a chord.
You can get some great use out of this app if you’re using simple chord symbols (stuff like 7, M7, add9, sus4, 6/9, b11, etc.) but you can’t, for example, play any of these chords without the fifth, or without the third. You can’t play jazzy/bluesy chords that are difficult to define, either. There are all sorts of chords that are impossible to generate with traditional chord notation, and so it’s disappointing to see these left out.
Please add an “omit X interval” function for each chord.
Also, rhythm is very limited and almost non-functional. You can split chords into very large chunks, but there’s really no way to divide into 1/16ths or triplets or anything of that nature.
Overall, great for quick sketches and simple grooves, but unable to create anything more complex.

3 beats..??
I just bought the app. I think I must be missing something. How do I set the time signature in the app? I don’t find a way to set 3/4 time for example…
Disappointed
Why can’t this load in BeatMaker 3? It’s says auv but it’s iaa.
Response from developer
Hello, you can load it inside beatmaker as AUv3 MIDI plugin but the recording is a bit tricky due to beatmaker’s lack of MIDI plugin support. Using in AUM, cubase or nanostudio might be better.
