Name \| Version:	BLOOMER 2.3.1
Author:	jshaw
Device Type:	MIDI Generator
Description:	Emotional Chord Engine for Ableton [M4L] [ 03/17/26 ] - v2.3.1 is live and is a stability and workflow update focused on action-chord behavior, transport-follow reliability, export parity, and timeline usability. Fixed action chords in HOLD mode so they sustain correctly until the next action chord or main chord hit. Fixed Timeline and Clip export so action-chord note lengths now match live playback behavior. Fixed STAB mode so short action accents export correctly instead of printing as held notes. Improved STAB timing so it feels more musical while still leaving safe headroom before the next main chord. Fixed action-step rebuild behavior so deleting one active slot no longer overwrites or shifts neighboring action-chord choices. Improved live editing so main-chord and action-chord changes update in playback more immediately instead of waiting for stop/start. Fixed a live-edit queue issue that could occasionally cause a missed chord hit before resyncing. Added sub-bass support to action chords so action slots can carry the sub voice too. Fixed a transport-follow issue where spacebar restart could replay a stale chord before bar 1 when MOTION was active. Fixed MOTION curve visuals so point drift responds immediately when moving the slider instead of waking up late. Tightened loop and resume behavior around action playback and restart edge cases without changing the core timing engine. Cleaned up chord timeline controls and action-toolbar UI for better readability and clearer visual feedback. [03/10/26] - FLOORED by all the love and support for BLOOMER! v2.2 is out now it's feeling goooood! :) [ 03/07/26 ] - v2.0.1 is out now! It includes a ton of stability and UI/UX improvements. And our new MOTION feature that really brings your chord progressions to life with a new form of randomization/chance for individual chord hits! There's only around 15 Early Contributor slots remaining ($9) - the price goes up after they're gone! :) [ UPDATE - v1.1 is out not - THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE EARLY SUPPORT AND FEEDBACK ] [ DEMO WALKTHROUGH - https://youtu.be/9NOhGJnrqpI ] Design the arc. BLOOMER lets you shape harmonic tension over time using a dynamic emotion curve. You draw the rise, the bloom, the release.. it generates the progression. Fast. Controlled. Intentional. The Engine Under the hood is a harmonic analysis model trained on patterns found in timeless songwriting.. how tension builds, how chords lean, and why resolution feels inevitable. It does not recreate famous progressions. It extracts the decision logic behind them. You stay in your key. You control the curve. BLOOMER handles the movement.

@weswook - THAT'S the feedback I've been looking for! I was having so much fun when it was coming to life I was like "I HAVE to share this!"
Thanks a million! What an honor! :) Let me know if I can help / support in any way. My goal is to make this thing rock solid on as many systems as possible. Maybe a VST version next!

Looks very interesting. Please do add the Paypal option (many of us have credit cards stolen from websites). Thanks
