Hi.
I've tried to find out if there's a plugin that simply recognizes the chord you play on a keyboard, then looks from a map of guitar chord voicings for that particular chord and translates that into that voicing and passes that forward as midi to next plugin.
I know about
Piz midi Chords and then there are a ton of plugins that recognizes the chord you play,
like this one.
The trouble is that Piz midi Chord is not very easy to use for this case since it's meant for saving a bunch of chords and then recalling them. What I need Is a tool that saves me the time to figure out how to translate a particular chord into a guitar voicing to send to a VSTi plugin.
I'm no stranger to programming so I have pretty good idea about the algorithms and work required, but I've never done any VST programming and c++ isn't my forte so to speak. So t here's a large hurdle to clear in that regard.
I've thought about making this in LUA or JS though, could be easier.
If anyone has good ideas for plugin/script that can do this (preferably free), it would be a huge time saver. Especially these days that virtual guitar simulations are good enough to use as a composing tool.
If there are code snippets in LUA/JS that I could use as part of my implementation, those would be appreciated too.
