BUG: Ableton's Chord Plugin...

[57R34K]

Good morning all,

I keep experiencing an issue where I'm using Ableton's chord plugin to play chords with a single keystroke yet only one note in the chord rings out. It happens about every 1 out of 8 tries. The other 7 tries has the full chord sound.

What I'm doing is I have a polyphonic synth pad as a sound in an instrument rack, then I have a midi rack with three chains of the chord plugin. Each chain is mapped to a single note on the midi keyboard within the midi rack and each chain is a different chord depending on the note. For example:

Within the Midi rack:

Bb is mapped to my major 3rd inversion chord chain
G and D are mapped to the minor chord chain
F is mapped to the major chord chain

Sometimes the full chord rings out when I press the appropriate key, and sometimes it's only a single note. Does anyone know why? It's awful when you jump from a full sound to an empty single note sound mid song...

Bump.

Anyone else experiencing this issue or know how to fix?

Isn't it because your midi instrument's polyphony is set to low? Or about the "voice retriggering"? Or both?

I don't think so, but I will take a look at that. I have 3 different instruments layered together on different tracks and they all flow through their own midi rack with the chords and such. It isn't just one instrument that is affected when I encounter only one note ringing out instead of the full chord. All 3 instruments behave the same way at the same time when one note rings out. They all 3 lose the chord.

One of the instruments is a piano which is why I said I don't think so, but I will check that out after work today.
