Customized chords

Post by kaho »

I have been making my own chord voicings. My computer will not play chord voicings that contain more than 6 chord members. It would be a tremedous help if I were able to create voicings with up to 11 members. Is this possible? Will this be possible in the future or with an upgrade? Or perhaps a more powerful computer?
Thank you for your help. I am a big fan of the "customized chord" feature in the EarMaster Pro.

In EarMaster you can make chord progressions with up to 5 chords. We have it on our list of suggestions to allow more chords and will consider it for a future update of EarMaster.

Customized chord question clarification

Post by kaho »

Hi Hans, Thanks for writing back. My question is actually in reference to a single chord. I was wondering if a single chord could contain more than 6 notes. For example a single chord containing the notes "C" "C#" "D" "E" "F#" "G" and "B" would be an example of a customized chord containing 7 notes. I think it would be great if it were possible to customize your own chords containing up to 11 notes. This would be a tremendous ear stretcher. Is this possible? Will it be possible in the future? --Big fan of your program...

A custom chord in EarMaster can contain up to 12 notes, so it can already do what you ask for.

OK! I understand now; thanks for your fast response. I think past 6 notes I need to use the "closed position" voicing rather than "open position." If I use the "open position" with 7 or more notes, there is a box that says "error." Thank you very much for your help--I'll make sure to use the "closed position" function. Great program!!
