phritz The Chord Rack MIDI Preset [Synth Presets]
FANTASTiC | 24 December 2024 | 35 KB
here's an idea that sort of needs further developing, but would probably be an interesting concept - which is the 'chord rack' - a drum rack format midi effect that instead triggers midi chords.
to give a bit of a background story, I had the idea of this when preparing for a live show, which had a sequence of chord progressions I could not play live on the keyboard (because I can't play the keyboard :( ).
inside the rack is a stack of individual chord MIDI effect chains that accept triggers from C1 to D#2, behaving just like the Drum Rack device. (chord names listed on each chains are probably not correct,, sorry)
Each chord preset is manually-picked and voiced, and can be modified to your liking if you want to change up e.g. voicing etc.
Alternatively, if you do not want to dive into the huge list of MIDI chains and adjust the voicing of each preset one-knob-at-a-time, you can set a separate MIDI track and record the Chord Rack track's MIDI into the new one, essentially resampling the Chord Rack track with all of the voicing being faithfully depicted.
also, the 'strum' macro knob on the racks can be used to do arpeggiated patterns if that is preferable.
I hope to work on this idea a bit more in the future, but hope this sparks some ideas for your song building!
