Unlock the Flow of Harmony

Let your ear lead the way.

All feel. No friction.

ChordAXE is a new kind of plugin for expressing harmony and unlocking creativity. Explore the emotional architecture behind iconic songs. Start with a preset to spark ideas—or build your own progressions from scratch. Whether you're a songwriter, producer, or composer, ChordAXE helps you find new harmonic ideas—by ear, by feel, and by instinct.

Play With Harmony, Instantly.

Fire up a preset and explore its harmonic vibe—lush, raw, moody, jazzy, or wide open. Get inside the chord DNA that shapes great songs—while reworking their structures into something new. Or create your own chord changes—no rules, just sound and feel.

Shape Progressions by Touch—Or Keys.

Tap any shape to hear a chord, or use your MIDI keyboard to play a trace—a one-finger-per-chord progression that flows in real time. Preset traces come built-in, or upgrade to create your own. Play chords with one hand while the other improvises melodies, riffs, or basslines. Reorder chords, alter voicings, and change keys on the fly—all by ear, all live.

Groove With Harmonic Motion.

ChordAXE turns static chords into living rhythm. Choose from built-in patterns (strums, arpeggiations, syncopations, pocket grooves)—or break up chords live using your MIDI keys to shape timing, texture, and feel in real time.
Whether you're jamming or recording, every rhythmic gesture is captured as editable MIDI—ready to layer, arrange, or drive your instruments in any DAW.
