Custom Chord Mapping

Post by 8E » Thu Jan 12, 2017 10:13 am

Hi everyone.
I have used the Chord plugin to get chords, for instance +4 +7, etc.
But I need this:
I want to map for EACH tone different chords.
For example: when pressed C4 I need +5+7 when pressed C5 I need +5+7+9. And so for all other tones. So I program different chords for each tone.
Is there any plugin for that? Or a way to record the chords?

you can do it with a rack

Thanks, I know it can be mapped by zones, but I need all keys to be mapped differently. So I need 100+ zones?

you need as much zone as you need chords

Yeah you can easily do it with MIDI racks.
But since you are looking for plug-ins, I'd suggest checking out Cthulhu.
You get exactly this functionality, but with already many, many different banks filled with different chord collections provided as presets. (200+ banks)

In addition you get quite a capably sequence style arpeggiator.

Well worth the extra cost IMO
