    Every Single day the more tutorials am completing for REAPER am loving it more and more. I don't know If there is any other DAW in this world has such capabilities and community along with a INSANELY GREAT TEACHER like KENNY. Kudos to REAPER team and I don't have words to explain my excitement and love for the DAW that is increasing day by day. Still in evaluating mode but rest assured once I finish all the videos from REAPER website am going to instantly buy this DAW, no questions asked.

      I still like UChord (I'd like to accumulate a chord progression before committing it to the piano roll), but Captain's out of a job. I'd love to have some kind of 'chord object' in the actual Reaper piano roll, where you could e.g. select a chord and have some kind of action to invert them and other manipulations.

      Or, one could simply put the cursor on a note, right click and go down to "insert chords" and get a much more extensive list of chords to use than Chord Gun offers. Like a "mMaj7add13" or a "13b5b9" chord.

    Incredibly useful tool. Pandabot is the man! Didn't know this kind of tool was just a few clicks away :)
    I was always looking for something like this without having to buy a pricy VST. It's so useful to come up with some basic chord progressions (even if you use other notes later on. Or to set up a progression to practice musical instruments to. Impressive that it also is so well integrated with the MIDI editors, so that it replaces existing chords, preserves the rhythm and so on.
    I also love that it works with arpeggiators which follow in the FX lane, such as MIDI arpeggiator (see an other video by Kenny Gioia).
