Text Label for midi should have the chord/notes when dragged into DAW

It is must for me to have the chords name when I drug midi clip to the sequencer’s timeline. I work on multi songs over a period of time and it is easy to forget the chords structure of the songs. “Scaler-Chord.mid” text is none functional. Thank you in advance:)

Hi @Frank-Faruk and welcome.

we have added a few features since the release to facilitate working with chord names:

  • You can select multiple chords then using “Right-Click” > “Copy Chord Names to Clipboard” you can paste those names in the MIDI clip you dragged.
  • You can also export chord names as markers directly on your track. Go to Settings > Session > “Export Midi markers”. Now when you drag chords and if your DAW supports it, it will create markers with chord names into your track.

I hope this helps,

Cheers,
Ed

I think this a good idea. I mentioned it some months ago, as Scaler recognises chords is it possible that the chords you drag into your DAW are named as it would help the workflow, it would be easy to see verses and chorus arrangements.
