Re: More Tonal Theory: Arppegiators/Accent/Melody



It just entered my mind that the arpeggiating Margret is setting up in
Logic can be done all within the plug-in Cross Fade Loop Synth by
Expert Sleepers. This plug-in in fact is three delays that can be
pitch/rate shifted into any semi tone intervals. The higher you set
the pitch the faster that note will bounce back. You can set them all
to different intervals than the source not you feed them so there will
be a four harmony chord including the your played note.

Although this plug-in works well in any host, Logic especially makes
Margeret's practices easier. The trick should be to open the plug-in
and save different harmony settings as presets of Logic's preset
system ("save preset as", in the plug-in window). Next step is to use
some physical MIDI controller, maybe a MIDI pedal, to trigger the two
Logic commands "Next Plug-in Preset" and "Previous Plug-in Preset".
Given you keep the Cross Fade Loop Synth plug-in window open it will
switch presets and the same bouncing note will take on new "chord
harmonies" with every new preset you kick in. This plug-in sounds a
lot better than the PitchShifter 2 of Logic's.
