single key chord accompaniment

Post by srs »

Hi All,


Is it possible to have a single key trigger and have the M3/Karma play the 3-note chord for the key that is pressed ?

Reading some material i believe KARMA uses the chord scan function to achieve this.

But there is no explicit GE called chord scan. There are numerous melodic repeats patterns, chord patterns, realtime patterns.

None of them sound like simply playing the 3 notes.

I have the M3 split and set the trigger upto note B3 using nylon guitar for listening to the various chord patterns. This is set for module A.

Do i have to use RPPR for this ?

The most useful article for this was in karma-lab wiki.

But the melodic repeat GE hit's so many additional notes which i would like to avoid and just stick to the 3-note chord patterns.

Some ideas:

- you should try different (not only melodic repepeat) GE-s and
- limit number of notes playing with parameter "Note range" (if it is available as realt time parameter) and other RT parameters that control repetitions, variation etc
- experiment with scale parameter (if it is available as RT param) for chord type (as you can build different chords just with three notes, you probably assume major chord)

- you probably cannot easily and fully emulate arranger instruments "single finger" chord recognition feature with GEs only
