House music jazzy chords

Post by Andyroo66 » Thu Aug 26, 2021 10:15 am

Hello
Anyone know how I can cheaply create chords for house style music. I have Live 10 Suite but cant afford expensive plug ins.
Trying to recreate the sweeping chord sounds in Hercules and Love Affair- Blind (Frankie Knuckles remix).
Any tips gratefully received.
I think I briefly stumbled on the Korg M1 VST but expensive?
It's not my usual genre, but I have an idea....
Thanks

It's just a one finger chord stuff

Take MIDI chord device and set a chord among

+3; +7; +10; +14
+5; +7; +10; +14
+7; +16; +9; +18
+2; +4; +9
+4; +11; +14

Those are jazzy chords. Feel free to +12/-12 any pitch for position variation

OK, sorry these are the only M1 sounds I have.....

Heard on other forums like the one of Reason that Korg software can be flimsy, so beware before you part with your money!!!!
