Hi there,

I'm testing how reduce big scores for orchestra to piano, with the goal to study harmony progressions. I have been trying several plugins (eg. piano reductions generation, implode music option, JW Staff polyphony, ...) but they don't do quite what I need. 

The process I have in mind is as follows:

1. Select music section (potentially many instruments from orchestra, or at least two staves)

2. Analyse the selection and realice the underlaying harmony in the form of chord progressions

3. Assign names to chords (this seems to be the easier step).

Seems step 2 is not possible, so is there a way to combine all notes in a measure, in each stave?. That way I could later manually make corrections, merge staves and eventually get the chord progressions for harmony analysis.

I'm fully confident there needs to be a way to automate this process with high quality results (I see other softwares not oriented to music notation, like DAWs, with similar/better functionality). Can you guide me how would you go about it? 

Thanks in advance for any help!

I think the best tool for this is to buy piano reduction sheet music for whatever pieces you're interested in studying, then analyze it putting chord changes in manually.

I'm not familiar with what you're doing, but if a DAW will do it, invest in one. Finale is for notation.

No DAW that I'm familiar with can do this. A DAW is basically a software version of a recording studio. It's primary use is to make recordings.

1. Put the full score into concert.

2. Write down the chords you then recognize.

 

It may not sound easy (it probably isn't), but you will learn a heck of a lot really fast this way.
