MIDI Arpeggiators

A MIDI Arpeggiator is a plugin that accepts MIDI notes and generates a sequence of notes or chords related to the input.

Combine an Arpeggiator plugin with our bundled “chord progression” clips, and you can arrange a synth masterpiece in no time!

The 3 plugins are:

• Arpeggiator: a simple but full-featured MIDI note arpeggiator with divisions, up/down patterns, gate time, and swing.
• Arpeggiator (Barlow): another simple monophonic arpeggiator, but this one modulates the note velocities to produce rhythmic accents according to the time signature and division settings.
• Arpeggiator (Raptor): a very complicated polyphonic arpeggiator that plays chord inversions based on the input. Enable the Raptor mode to let the arpeggiator generate additional notes (beyond what was input) according to user-adjustable parameters like probability, harmonicity, and repetition. Raptor mode enables pitch- and velocity-tracking. Enable the ‘loop’ switch when you want to keep an idea on ‘repeat’. You can even send program-changes from the plugin to your synth. And automate any parameter including program-changes …. wow!
  

These plugins were contributed by Albert Gräf for the Ardour open-source project. Thanks to Albert for these incredibly useful and fun new tools!
