Chord Assistant – Proximity (Cubase Pro only)

The Proximity mode of the Chord Assistant takes a set of harmonic rules into account to offer suggestions that match the origin chord.

If you open the Chord Assistant for a chord event, the previous event is set as origin chord. This is shown in the bottom center of the Chord Assistant. The farer away a suggestion is situated from the origin chord in the graphic, the more complex the suggestion. The suggested chords are triads or 4-note chords.



  • To assign a chord to the selected chord event and play it, click it.

    The last 3 suggested chords that you clicked are shown with a highlighted border.

Note

  • If you move the mouse pointer over one of the suggestions in the Chord Assistant, a tooltip with suggestions for progressions is shown.

  • The Proximity mode underlies the same rules as the List mode.
