Arpeggio Generator

This dialog generates arpeggios from chords that are already recorded. The generator scans the selected track(s) in the trackwindow. Whenever 3 or more notes sound simultanously, they are replaced by an arpeggio that consists of the chord notes and their octaves.

You can paint the kind of arpeggio: the x axis represents the time in steps, the y axis the note of the chord. A value of 5 on the y axis means: 'take the 5-th note of the chord'. If the chord does not contain 5 notes, the generator transposes the chord by one octave.

If you check the controller box, you can choose a controller (e.g. panpot). In this mode, the generator does not scan the selection but generates controller events.

Take a look at the examples in the song/arpeggio directory.
