hello everyone! i want to get scaler 2, and after watching this video and seeing how he could hold his chords to lock notes to create melodies from, i am now wondering if scaler wont be very effective with 25 key keyboard. is it possible to do this as overdub?
video in question
referring to the 15.30 minute mark
TL:DR
is scaler ok to use to make harmonic melodies with a 25 key keyboard
I think it works just fine with 25 keys. You can always shift octaves around, but I rarely ever run into constraints with the 25 keys, just playing Scaler chords.
Welcome @noah Yes also Scaler has some versatility in using EDIT mode and muting chords to trigger melodies in keys lock.For two handed performance I always prefer a minimum 49 key.
Same thing that @davide, is best to have a keyboard with a good extension of keys, and more if you change the patterns via keyboard on live playing / recording.
