So I'm using this beautiful old #Sitala #WindowsVST, which is a dead simple drum #sampler player #plugin… triggered by #LspTrigger.
Now #LSP Trigger only triggers one note of course, but I'd like several notes to be played by the #Sitala #VST.
So far I am abusing #MidiChord, yet another magic tool by @x42, but it can't do chromatic clusters. 🤪 So I need to arrange my samples in the scale… which is possible, but it's less samples available than I would wish.
Any idea?
( @mosgaard … back on the #SoundDesign construction site for a a short while… need to pimp up those knocks on my bunker door, before running to the next #EvenTech thing. )

in reply to Nielso • • •10 years ago I'd have had a Chromatic Cluster plugin ready before you completed writing the post. But I'm getting old, now probably @falktx has one before send this reply :)
It'll be easy to copy/edit the MIDI Chord plugin, ignore the scale and allow for N notes in semitone steps (really MIDI note).
I guess most clusters span over an octave. So instead of checkboxes, dropdown to pick additional notes +/- 24 would be nice.
The hard part is allowing automation while notes play.

in reply to Robin Gareus • • •Are you using Ardour? If so a Lua DSP script can do this. You could combine two exmaples (MIDI-map and MIDI Generator):

in reply to Nielso • • •I'll meanwhile have a look at adding a plugin to the midifilter.lv2 set.
With a custom Lua you can be quick/dirty, and simple, depending on your needs. e.g. no need to keep track of active notes,
A general purpose plugin need to be robust for all potential use-cases.

in reply to Robin Gareus • • •Can you compile github.com/x42/midifilter.lv2/ from source?
I have just added a "Chromatic Cluster" plugin, ready for testing. Currently it allows for up to nine notes to be triggered, each with an offset of -24 .. + 24 semitones relative to the input note.
If you could give it a test run, some feedback would be very appreciated. If needed I could also send you a binary.
