Soundscape Tapeloop Sequencer
Chordscape is an ambient infinite tape playback machine designed to create evolving modulated dark ambient soundscapes but can be used for all sorts of different sound design scenarios.
Chordscape is now at Version 1.2 with many new features and snapshots included. Updates include:
Start/stop playback using a key-switch (either colored Red or Green) at the bottom of the virtual keyboard. MIDI note 31
The Mute key-switches have been assigned to key switches MIDI notes 24,26,28 & 29
The range of re-pitch keys has been greatly expanded to now cover 4 octaves
When using the sound browser Chordscape now immediately starts to play the selected sound, no longer waiting for you to close the browser. This way you can audition sounds whilst the sound browser is open
Improved repitch engine
Keyswitch assigned to the sequencer Start/Stop button
Independent start/stop key switches for each sequencer track
Sequencer presets now load from disk
55 additional sequencer presets included
200 brand new snapshots. Now includes a total of 441 snapshots!
Chordscape contains 8GB of sound designed content derived from acoustic instruments, natural recordings, sound design, outboard effects and synthesizers. Each sound has been carefully created from scratch to fit the engine and philosophy of the library by our good friend Erick McNerney.
There are 4 sound sources, an inbuilt browser system, 4 dedicated sequencers and multiple assignable effects
The unique feature of Chordscape is that it is designed to emulate a tape machine. Once you start the Chordscape engine running you can create movement by modulating and automating parameters as it plays. This gives incredibly unique evolving sounds that never stop!
13 SOUND CATEGORIES
With 4 sounds sources, each with 13 sound categories you could get lost in Chordsape for days. All sounds are accessible using the pop-up browser system and mixer settings are retained per sound.
421 SNAPSHOTS
If you don't know how to use snapshots in Kontakt then you don't know what you are missing. They load quicker, can be organised better and shared easier than using a bunch of nkis.
Chordscape ships with 421 snapshots in 10 different categories to get you started. Categories are:
Dark
Emotive
Expansive

Please ensure you place the snapshots in the correct location on your computer to get the most out of Chordscape.
Please refer to the documentation and our FAQs for more details.
EVOLVING MODULATION
Chordscape allows nearly every single control to be modulated over time.
With a dedicated pop-up modulation system with between 4 and 128 steps per conrol it is possible to create pulses, stepped sequences or long smooth progressions and adjust the speed individually for every control.
