Captain chord Epic

@swingmix

so can the old version of the Captain plugin be deleted?

I assume so, as the ‘links’ are in different folders

However
1 Mixedin Key don’t install to standard folders
2 Although it seems as though they are dll’s, they are only 16kb, and so are clearly not. They are probably links to al the stuff in these directories

It’s not the normal situation as much of the processing seems to be in the cloud.

However - due warning -

• I haven’t tried uninstalling the old version yet
• I may be (and am frequently) wrong.

I’ll try it after my next image backup and let you know.

thanks!!

I understand.
So, I am always stuck in use.
because of network problems. The manipulation experience of CAPTAIN chords is not good.

I updated to Captain Epic hoping its going to improve…I’ve been disappointed again. The only useful part of Captain (for me anyway) is Captain Melody. It does a decent job of creating a melody idea to work on/smooth out but the controls for that are not really intuitive. Scaler is by far the easiest to use tool to create a chord progression and get a musical idea pointed in the right direction. Its also a great theory teacher for those of us who are deficient in that skill.

I agree with everything you said.
I also prefer SCALER. Hope SCALER gets better and better.

I updated to Epic also. I like it and did a couple of cool tracks with it. One of the tracks, I used Epic and Scaler because Epic went ballistic when I tried to do a key change and modulation. I think these are all wonderful tools that keep getting better and I am completely grateful for their existence and development.
Here is the link to those tracks: A Traveller's EP - YouTube

Why does it crash when I use it? I use it in STUDIO ONE and often crash.

[Beelmon]

I wish I knew the answer to that. It crashes on me too.

What are your OS and DAW?

Windows 10 and Studio One 5 Professional.

I’ve not yet had a crash with CC Epic (although I don’t use it much, as the genre driven approach is rather limiting) . On Win 10 with Live 11, although I also run it in Canatbile.
