Tried these out yet?

I made a whole bunch of scale and chord presets for Live.
There might be a couple of spelling errors here and there....
But hey, nobody is perfect ;)

To be honest, "working" the chords to be like Chordspace is not going to happen. Chordspace is ubercool...

it's downloading as a dll file, I've never encountered one of these, and can't get it to work. Any ideas?

Its a windows file, a vst plugin .. if you are on windows pop it in your VST plug in folder probably c:/programs/steinberg/plugins
