Adds additional parallel notes to a Melody. This Node is commonly used to quickly convert a monophonic pattern to chords, or to create additional harmonics. Can be used in conjuction with the Melody Filter Node to constrain the effect to longer or more emphasized notes only.
Inputs
Melody Input
A Melody line to which extensions are added.
Settings
Extensions
Extension steps can be disabled or deleted. Up to 4 extensions are available with AudioNodes HD.
Extension mode
Sets how the selected extension steps are interpreted.
- Chromatic: each extension step represents a 100-cent offset from the original notes.
- Diatonic: each extension step represents a single step on the used scale, from the original note.
Timing mode
Sets the timing algorithm to use on extensions.
- Constant: each extension is added with the exact same timestamp as the original note, producing a perfectly simultaneous playback.
- Arpeggio ascending: the original note and any added extensions are sorted in an ascending pitch-wise order, and then incrementally shifted in time to produce an arpeggio effect.
- Arpeggio descending: same as Arpeggio ascending, but with decreasing pitch-wise order.
In addition to the settings listed above, this node is configured with a set of extensions to add to each note in the input Melody.
