Midi note/chord detection
hi all,
i am wondering, is there a mac au plugin that can detect what midi notes or chords i am playing, like logic 8 does in the transport bar?
thanks,

Re: Midi note/chord detection
still nothing on this topic?
Re: Midi note/chord detection
There might be a M4L plugin that does this.
I think Reaper might do this as well (but I'm not sure) with a JS plugin or notation editor.
Re: Midi note/chord detection
There are many M4L and third party VST/AU for chords /melodies /bass (generate, follow chords, etc)...
To mainly detect chords, and play/stay in key/scale (hardware aside - push 2, s61 etc) I would start with these;
* Ableton Scale MIDI effect (moves notes into scale selected)
* Piano roll zoomed (not ideal with hardware but you can fold back to only see the scale). Can PM you the .ALC files for all scales
* AutoTheory 5 (shows notes played stand alone or plug in)
* Chord Composer
* Chord MIDI effect built into AB
* Chordio
* EZ Keys (has sounds and MIDI also, but works really well)
* Instachord
* Instascale
* J74 HarmoTools
* Mixed in Key Studio
* Scaler (excellent > one of my faves and shows the notes /chords played, captures chord from audio, generates, ++++)
I recommend demo first (if available) to see which suit you best,
Hope that helps

There is also Hornet SongKey MK3.
Re: Midi note/chord detection
Forgot about Hornet, that one works also.
Really depends how in depth you want to get.
Another way using Ableton stock (and no plug ins) is to add the Audio Effect “Spectrum”, play the key, and point your mouse to the highest frequency at the top. You will see the key on the left. Best to expand the view.
