Description
This is my mod of Nylon by cvolm. Nylon generates chords from single MIDI notes and then distributes them in time, creating a 'strum' effect.
This mod instead applies the strum effect to incoming MIDI chords, such as those generated by the Chord MIDI effect. It also works on chords in MIDI clips provided the chord notes arrive at exactly the same time (in other words quantize chords first).
You can use Ableton's arppegiator to do this, though the benefit of this method is that all notes in the chord will sustain until each note is released. I needed this for a project and had seen at least a couple comments on the original asking for this feature.
This was my first time using M4L and all I did was remove sections from the original and add only a small amount of new stuff. As far as I know this kind of modding is ok on this site, not intending to infringe on copyright.
