600.0. "bound by a chord" by COMICS::DSMMGR () Mon Sep 18 1989 08:40


    
    
    Hi everyone,
    
    
    I have a useful little program which shows me chords on both a
    fretboard and a keyboard and outputs the chord via midi. All you
    have to do is select the chord for which you want to know the fingering
    and it brings it up on the screen. Great, but there are one or two
    drawbacks. One it only runs in low res and of course two it is a
    .PRG program. This means that when you have your favourite sequencer
    loaded up you cannot use the chord-finder without exiting. A bit
    of a nuisance you'll no doubt agree !!
    
    My question is, does anyone know of an .ACC file that will perform
    a similar function (ie show chord structures etc.). It would be
    wonderfully useful.
    
    
    Thanks

600.1also looking for suchUFHIS::BFALKENSTEINTue Sep 19 1989 06:306
    I've heard of an utility which allows you to start every  .prg  from/as
    an accessory. Maybe somebody has more infos or a pointer where to find 
    it.

600.2Flexcessory?RODNEY::PETERSDon Peters, CTC2-1/F10, 287-3153Tue Sep 19 1989 17:137
    Bernd,

Are you talking about Flexcessory? It allows you to run PRG files as if they
were desk accessories.

    

600.3interesting !!COMICS::DSMMGRWed Sep 20 1989 09:3915
    I don't know about Flexcessory, though it sounds really interesting.
    Is it PD and if not where is it available from and how much please.
    
    To answer your question though really what i am looking fr is a
    chord dictionary/display program that will work in medium res and
    be accessible without leaving my sequencer. Ie available as a desk
    accessory. The chord program I have is okay but only runs in low
    res and is a bit simplistic. It does output the chord via midi which
    is nice but since all my music applications are medium res it becomes
    too much of a nuisance to use most of the time.
    
    
    Thanks for the interest.
