Chord Sets from Maschine 3 Update on Maschine Studio are broken

Seems like the screen and buttons were not properly updated on the Maschine Studio.
The chord sets are there when you choose them but the button to actually program your own chords is not there instead it stays with FIXED VEL 🙈

No way to make your own Chord Sets…..

    See here

    Creating is only available on the Maschine MK3 and Maschine+ (in controller mode).

    Someone needs to create some sort of megachords pack, with all known chords / inversions already built up. Any scripting wizards over here who could automate building such a pack?

    I had a thought recently that the software should be able to work out from the settings (major/minor/scale/root note) and the notes added, what the name of the chord is, so that it could automatically name them as you made them….

    im suprised people are not looking to scaler3 for their chord selections??

    anyone tried Scaler3 in maschine? it would dwarf the chord usability in maschine3 given all the extras available

    Indeed. If Maschine had a way to use input from plugs such as Scaler directly into Maschine Chords Sets 'packs' would start popping up but having to manually do it from KKS or via Pad live input makes it a pain…

    Scale Mode + Harmozier can (sort of) already do that for the basic chords, but only up to 7th chords, no 9th's, 13th, etc…

    How would a mega pack like that even be organized? Each set would be a different root note with 12 different version of a chord? That would mean switching set to trigger each chord.

    I tried it with Maschine during Scaler 3 beta. It’s always the same experience: you need something like Blue Cat.

    I hoped at least that, since now Scaler has a standalone version with multiple tracks that can send on different channels, I could use that to send to Maschine…but I haven’t found a way yet.

    That’s why I went back to my usual workflows: Maschine inside the DAW and Scaler sending midi to it, but “external” from Maschine…or even better, Scaler (atm only 2) on iPad sending midi to Maschine (that’s the way I use it: imo having another (touch) screen on which I can always keep Scaler open and play it from there is the best solution)

    it would seem the best way to tie Scaler3 to Maschine

    is loading maschine into Scaler3 standalone as a VST3…

    load a instrument on sound slot 1

    and that ties it directly realtime recording with linked chords from inside scaler

    doing it the other way around ie.. does really tie in… and i found Maschine crashes after a certain amount of time… for some odd reason

    so its better to load scaler3 standalone and then load the maschineVST3 within it…
