4.6 Chord Voicing 35
Here are other advices which help to create more realistic loops:
Always slightly vary the velocity of strumming keys in order to get a more lively result.
If the loop is short, it may be preferable to repeat the same patterns many time with different
velocities for each repetition.
If the loop includes chords, always make sure that they are well quantized and that there is
always a strumming key played at the same time. This will avoid unwanted strokes when the
loop is played while the Auto-Strum mode is switched on.
Avoid using MIDI controllers whose effect can be changed by the user. For example, the
pitch wheel can either be used to create a bend or a slide; the hold pedal can either hold the
current chord or be used to trigger an alternate strum.
4.6 Chord Voicing
On the guitar, there are usually many different ways to play the same chord. Each of these positions
or voicing sounds differently and suits different musical styles. Strum Session always uses movable
chords and the specific voicing it chooses depends on setting of the Chord section of the interface.
Movable Chords. These chords do not use open strings. As a result they can be moved
along the fretboard of the guitar allowing one to easily play the same voicing in different
tonalities. This type of chords includes barre chords which are obtained by using one finger to
press down multiple strings across the fretboard. Movable chords always use the maximum
possible number of strings and are therefore useful to play arpeggios. Furthermore they allow
one to play the same arpeggio patterns in different keys.
The voicing is specified by indicating what should be the lowest note of the chord played by
Strum Session:
Lowest. The lowest note in the guitar voicing chosen by Strum Session is the lowest note
played on the keyboard. This type of voicing is useful if it is necessary that the bass of the
chord sequence follows a specific movement.
Root. The lowest note in the guitar voicing chosen by Strum Session is the root of the
detected chord. It is very common for guitar chords to have the root in bass position. This
choice of chord type allows one to play chords on the keyboard using any voicing and still
obtain a guitar chord in root position.
