Extracting Chord Events from MIDI
You can extract chords from MIDI notes, parts, or tracks. This is useful, if you have
a MIDI file and want to show its harmonic structure, and use this file as starting point
for further experimenting.
PREREQUISITE
Add the chord track and create MIDI notes that can be interpreted as chords.
Drums, monophonic bass, or lead tracks are not suitable.
PROCEDURE
1. In the Project window, select a part or one or several MIDI tracks.
You can also select the MIDI tracks, parts, or notes that you want to extract in the Key
Editor, Score Editor, or In-Place Editor.
2. Select Project > Chord Track > Create Chord Symbols.
The Create Chord Symbols dialog opens.
3. Make your settings and click OK.
RESULT
The chord events are added on the chord track.
