I can’t seem to find a real time chord detection output that was in Scaler 1 and Scaler 2.  
I was expecting to see it somewhere on the top of the keyboard but have not found it.  
I have tested the record detect MIDI chords and that works as usual.  
I like the real time output because it gave you direct feedback on chord names while playing the keyboard. That capability needs to be brought back.  
Thanks

Just didn’t make the cut - was next on the list I promise. It’s coming. I want it back to. Let’s hope for it in 3.1 soon!

I just can’t fathom how it “just didn’t make the cut” 😵‍💫 …

Literally putting a mini DAW in Scaler but taking that out? I don’t get it man lol I’m trying to…

In my opinion, it’s an essential function of scaling. I find it hard to understand how it could have been removed!

Hey @ZikTune It wasn’t removed it just wasn’d added. If you imagine a list of 1000, it was 1001. Like literally - I wanted it but for release but we just didn’t make it. It will be in very soon don’t worry.
