Yes, ChordPrism 2 is a free upgrade from ChordPrism 1.  Your code from ChordPrism 1 will work with ChordPrism 2.

You can find all ChordPrism DAW setup tutorials on our Setup page.

A while back we changed the name to ChordPrism, as we made improvements to the user experience (plug in format, simple security, free trial, export midi).  With these new improvements, we decided to also go with a new name.  If you had a license for AutoTheory 4 or 5, you should have received an email with a free activation code for ChordPrism (check your spam folder March 2020).  If you did not receive this please contact us with your email, iLok activation code and proof of purchase.

In some DAWs like Logic Pro and Pro Tools, ChordPrism is an AU MIDI Effect, not an Instrument.  You will find it in the MIDI FX drop down, not the Instrument drop down. You can find all DAW setup tutorials on the 'Setup' Page of our website.

If you do not specify a different folder during install, the Chord Prism plugin files will be downloaded to:
Mac: /Users/{username}/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST (or VST3, or Components for audio units)
Win (VST): /Windows (C:)/Program Files/Steinberg/VstPlugins
Win (VST3): /Windows (C:)/Program Files/Common Files/VST3

Mac: / Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Application Support/Chord Prism/Presets
Win: C:/Users/[USERNAME]/Documents/Chord Prism/Presets

Mac: /Users//Library/Logs/chord_prism/chord_prism_log.txt
Windows C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\chord_prism\chord_prism_log.txt

Delete the "activations.db" file from:
Windows - C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Mozaic Beats\activations.db
Mac - /Users/{username}/Library/Application Support/Mozaic Beats/activations.db

djust the Chord Groups parameter of the Smart Scale instance to match the Chord Groups parameter of the Chord Generator instance. The Smart Scale automatically applies Accidentals to match the chords selected within the Chord Generator and Chord Editor.

If you copy Smart Scale content to an area where there is no Chord Generator content being played, chord changes will not occur. You can program a "silent" chord change by selecting Mute on the Chord Generator and recording the chord progression. This will allow for shifting of the Smart Scale without an audible chord change.

You are using Mappings that do not work well with each other. The Chord Tones, Dynamic Scale and Relative Scale Mappings place the i chord on the first white key. They will align properly with each other. The Absolute Scale and Chromatic Scale Mappings place Chords and Tones on their natural positions. They will align properly with each other.
