Default Chords and scales in MIDI editor... How to set up?

What kind of add-on (repack?) do I need to install in order to get the menu at the bottom of the MIDI editor screen, that allows me to drag/drop Various chords and scales into my MIDI track?


Thanks in advance for any help you can provide (or links to installation tutorials)

Thanks!

John…

This is not the first time you've come to my rescue.
Your assistance is much appreciated.

Just as an aside, I think that the "Reaperblog" is a phenomenal resource for Reaper users everywhere.
Sorry I didn’t check there, first, before asking here.

Thank you so much for all you do for us!


I’ll check this out this afternoon!

Peace,

K8ch




UPDATE:
Well, this is not exactly what I was looking for, it's what I need, so I'm happy to say that his has been resolved.
Thanks Jon!!

I have the same requirement, and have imported the Instant Arpeggios & Chords items using the instructions from the link above. I'm not having any luck creating chords, however.
Here's what I'm doing:
1. Create a 4Front True Piano VST item in a new track
2. Insert a 4-bar MIDI item
3. Double-click the MIDI item to open the editor
4. Right-click in the first bar, in line with the C2 note, and select Insert chord...major...major
Nothing gets inserted - no chord, not even a C2 note. If I double-click I can insert individual notes without any problems. I just can't get the chords to insert.
Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
I'm running Reaper v5.35 on Windows 10.
