What is Fluid Chords 2?
Fluid Chords 2 bends smoothly from any chord to any other chord in real time (per the manufacturer). Bending uses MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression), so it works with MPE-compatible synths and samplers, and it also has its own built-in sound engine (the store’s description). It runs on Mac (AU, VST3, VST, standalone) and Windows (VST3, VST, standalone), 64-bit only. The manufacturer’s site offers a 15-day trial.
Features
Smarter chord bending
A new voice-leading engine makes bends move musically. Strum bends the notes one after another, and Flow decides whether chords resolve close together, spread apart or cross in between (per the manufacturer).
Harmony generation
Pick a key and a genre, and the Harmony Engine creates chord progressions. You can hold up to 16 chords, mapped chromatically from C1 to C3 (per the manufacturer).
Built-in Fluid Sound Engine
A hybrid of a wavetable synth and an MPE sampler, with a gater, reverb, delay and compressor built in (per the manufacturer).
Real-time mode and Split & Play
You can bend chords with just a MIDI controller, without a sustain pedal. In Split & Play, one key triggers a chord bend with your left hand while your right hand plays a melody (per the manufacturer).
Who it suits
- Keyboard players who want expressive, guitar-like chord bends
- Songwriters who want quick chord progression ideas
- People who already use MPE-compatible synths and want to get more out of them
