Omnichord anyone?

Post by k brown »

Anyone (Spogg?) ever done anything that could be played like an Omnichord/QChord? Select a chord, 'strum' an area on the GUI to play the chord? Would be especially effective with a laptop touch pad.

Hi kevin,

Yes, I did something similar. You can find it here.

Wow - that's quite a complex beast; but I don't see that it has any way to strum a selected chord, like the Omnichord's Strumplate. Am I missing it?

I’ve not done that but I have used the mouse to create note events.

I would suggest using the Mouse-Over prim to create MIDI note on/off events for a keyboard/fret board GUI area.
You’d need a system for selecting the chords and key you want. This could be based on a MIDI keyboard, on-screen switches (as shown) or even PC keyboard input.

I expect you to have a working version by Thursday! :lol:

Cheers

I was thinking maybe elements of your Terrormin might be adaptable to something like this.
