Same themes as in the Wishlist UX thread. Make it quicker, make it easier, or last years over used word "workflow".
Studio One (latest version), Win 11 23H2 , i9 -10940X 3.3 GHz, 32GB Mem, a 4K 40" monitor, PreSonus Studio Live III Console as interface/controller. secondarily test on Reaper, Cakewalk, and S1 on Surface Pro 3 Win 10 (latest versions).
I often ask CHATGPT some music questions. For example, what notes are included in a certain chord, why can the next chord be this chord? I can basically get good answers.
I’ve been a Scaler user since the initial launch. While I am excited about Scaler 3, I just recently started using BIAB and I gotta say Scaler 3 is just a bit less attractive to me now lol.
Its nice that Davide is pushing Scaler limits...and price I am sure will be fair, however I am not too impressed. Since early days I've seen Scaler as more of an educational / exploration tool, but recent shift focuses more on multitrack abilities instead of more theory, complex harmonies, chord relationship etc. I will likely upgrade, as price would be discounted for Scaler 2 owners and there is some stuff of interest, but honestly, I expected a bit more in a different direction.
I find a much lesser known Cognitone's Spark a much better tool for chord/harmony exploration. I think it also has generative and binding abilities, but I never use them.
I like Cognitive Harmonizer for looking for chords options to fit a specific melody. I was hoping Scaler 3 could do the same.

I have a very cute video I did that I want to show you all. But, due to a beta tester confidentiality clause, I can't release it until after Scaler 3 is released So stay tuned here for release of my on-air ah-ha moment captured on video.
Scaler 3 is scheduled for release in 3 days, on March 25th, 2025.
Congrats on the beta testing. I assume you like it. Is it a game changer in terms of workflow? The teaser videos lead you to believe that.

Hello Jeff, thanks for asking. But I can't say too much about workflow at this time. After my wife passed away last fall, I went back to work after being retired for 3 years. So I no longer have the time for my music I had. My beta testing of Scaler 3 was pretty minimal as a result. But to tell you the truth, I update Scaler, just like I update BIAB, Reaper and a few other apps when ever available. These are essential tools for me when I do find time for my music. Oh and did I mention, upgrade available for $29.

Hey Double D (DrDan), I bought Scaler 1 and 2 (I think based on your recommendations) and I have played around with them but never really figured out how to make any good use of them! But, I'm sitting here with $29 of my kids' inheritance, wondering if you'd recommend Scaler 3 to me? I mean, as a practical matter, what is another $29 gonna matter to my offspring anyway?
