Recodec vs Chord Borrower

Recodec is an AUv3 audio effect for turning clean signal into textured, character-rich tone. Use Crusher for bit-depth style reduction, Reducer for sample-rate style degradation, Refine for smoother oversampled processing, Drive for added harmonic color, and Bass and Treble to rebalance the result. Then place the effect exactly where it belongs with Dry / Wet and the always-on Limiter. Recodec is built for fast experimentation. The classic interface keeps the core controls close, supports mono and stereo operation, includes factory presets across multiple categories, and lets you save your own user presets for quick recall. Recodec also includes MIDI Learn, Host Learn, CC assignment, and optional CC broadcast feedback for hands-on control workflows.

Chord Borrower — Modal Chord Progressions Borrow chords from any mode. Build progressions that sound nothing like everyone else's. Chord Borrower turns your phone into a modal chord instrument. Pick a key, and instantly play the seven diatonic chords of that scale — then stack on chords borrowed from Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, harmonic minor, melodic minor, and every other mode hiding inside your key. Tap through rows of chord buttons to hear how a single root note sounds across completely different modal colors, and build progressions no ordinary chord app could give you. Play in any key, any mode Choose a major or minor key, and your primary row lights up with its seven diatonic triads. Add up to six more rows, each pulled from a different mode built on that same root — the full set of major-scale modes, plus the modes of harmonic and melodic minor. Compare Ionian against Mixolydian, or drop into Phrygian dominant, all without changing key. Shape every chord your way Tap a chord button, then dial in its quality — 7th, 9th, 11th, 13th, sus2, or sus4. Each button remembers its own setting, so you can build a progression where every chord has its own color and extension, exactly as you shaped it. Choose your voice Play everything through piano, kalimba, acoustic guitar, or synth — warm, musical presets that make every chord (and every borrowed mode) sound great. Designed to inspire A single clean screen, pastel colors, soft rounded buttons, and a friendly, uncluttered layout keep the focus on your ears, not the interface. Whether you're a songwriter chasing a fresh progression, a music student exploring modal theory, or just someone who loves the sound of an unexpected chord, Chord Borrower makes modal harmony playable, visual, and fun.
