Hi
I'm practicing a song that has all the chord changes on the second half of the beat, something that is currently not possible to do in Earmaster. As the melody follows the chord changes, the sound is all messed up if the chord changes at the beginning of the beat.
The only workaround I've been able to find is not to use the chord track, and instead use the other 3 voices to create the chords.
Are there any plans to add slash notation to give more control for changing chords?
Thanks

Re: Slash notation for chords
EarMaster can place chords on each 1/4 note subdivison of a bar, but if you're using MusicXML import, maybe there is a bug we haven't seen before. If that's the case, could you please send the musicXML file to support@earmaster.com so that we may have a look. Thanks!

Hi
Please note that I want to place the chord in the second half of the beat, not the second half of the bar, maybe with an example is more clear:
The F chord should start on the second eight note of the last beat, but Earmaster would only let me place the chord either on the first eight note, or the first beat of the second bar.

Re: Slash notation for chords
Thank you for the screenshot. For the time being, you can only put chords on each quarter note subdivision within a 4/4 bar, which is why your F chord can only be placed at the first 8th note in your example. We are working on allowing more freedom for the chord voices, so it will be possible to do what you intended without having to use workarounds.
