Harmony Wizard feature request

[mellotron_]

Is it possible to add the ability to "lock in" the notes you play on your keyboard (computer keyboard or midi) into a specific scale and key signature? I'd like for the notes I play to be "filtered" if you will, by the key signature and scale of my choice. Is there any chance this might be possible to add to Harmony Wizard? I hope this request makes sense!

You can use the Note FX 'Chorder' to filter imcoming MIDI data to any scale you create.
3rd party PI 'Scaler' can do this as well.
And the "set scale" function in the <Edit> window does that post-facto.

Awesome. If you don't mind, how would one go about using the Note FX 'Chorder' to filter the midi data? Could this be used with pre-defined key signatures and scales? Is something like this "set it and forget it" for a project or is it going to require me doing it individually for every single instrument in the project? Cheers and thank for the help.

Until such time as Lucas or SP develops an incoming filter...

Enter this into Google search and read it:

"filter incoming midi using chorder in studio one to scale"

It's not easy or fast, but is a workaround. I've saved my scales as presets for Chorder.

This is helpful thanks! Agreed, not easy or fast but if I save my scales as presets it shouldn't be an issue in theory. I still hope Lukas might consider adding this functionality into Harmony Wizard in a more streamlined way. Other DAWs have their own "scale lock" feature because it's helpful and very quick for getting ideas out and building songs speedily. After watching the video it is relatively simple yet still needlessly complex when compared to most other DAWs where this is 1-2 clicks. Still greatly appreciate your help and will try it on for size.
