Chord Chameleon applies inversions to incoming chords in real time and color-codes the shifted notes for each setting.
FROM THE PLUG-IN
Rotate the chameleon’s eye to cycle through inversion settings.
Computer keyboard tip: Click the Invert dial, then use the Left and Right arrow keys to step through inversion settings.
The selected inversion applies as soon as a new chord is played, allowing you to preselect changes without disrupting notes that are currently held.
Inversions occur when a chord’s upper or lower notes are shifted one octave
