Analyze audio loops for chords in Cubase 15

Demo summary
The user demonstrates dragging a guitar loop onto a chord track to automatically analyze its harmonic content and then dragging those chords into the Chord Pads for use with other instruments.
Step-by-step
- Add a Chord Track to the project
- Drag the audio loop directly onto the Chord Track to trigger automatic analysis
- Open the Chord Pads using Shift+Command+C
- Select and delete any existing chords in the Chord Pads to clear the set
