Scaler wants to have this feature. For example, add a BASS button to your chord editor at the bottom. If you click BASS, you can add a bass key to each chord, so you don’t need to click Edit chord for each chord, and add a bass. For example, chord Cmaj C E G, and then in order to make the chord complex and full, I click the BASS button, which will automatically turn the chord into a low 8 degree C E G. If you have another pad button, it’s more appropriate. Clicking on pad will add pad tones to all chords. Then drag it into the MIDI track, run it and edit it. I think it saves a lot of time. You can even add drag bass midi, drag pad midi… etc. to drag midi. Hope the software is getting better and better ---

Hi @swingmix, this is a good idea, we have some plans for new features around chord voicing that should please you. Thanks for the suggestions and supporting Scaler, Ed ---

As part of the dynamic voicing, it’s pretty much like this when you select the dynamic voicing in 1.8 although it groups the upper notes together ---

I would personally prefer a separate bass option. You could of course just edit the chord but being able to add a bass note to all chords would be very useful. ---

You could of course just edit the chord but being able to add a bass note to all chords would be very useful. So ‘Add Bass note’ option within voicings? That’s easy enough and will work with all triads. Octave down?
