Hi guys!

does exist a vst midi plug wich receive a note and output a sequence of retriggered note of the same pitch at a specified rate ? (i need it to do live stuttering midi effects..like retrigger samples at supersonic speed ;) )

try an srpeggiator nd set te output note range to minimum :)

MIDI Stutter v1.0 (PC ONLY - SE)
------------
Download plugin

It's primary use is before sample players that are not in one-shot mode. If you've ever programmed stutter trills with MIDI notes to trigger a sample, then you'll know what i mean (sample playback stops with a note-off).

You put this plug before such a sampler, ideally in a host like energyXT!

Here's a description of the controls:
-------

Image

TRIGGER NOTE: this is the MIDI note that triggers the stutter.
STUTTER NOTE: this is the note that will be 'stuttered'.
VELOCITY MULT : this determines the stutter velocity in relation to the trigger event.
GAP RATIO : this determines the ratio of note-ons to gaps in the stutter stream. high gap ratio means smaller note-ons, minimum gap ratio makes the note-ons run end to end.
STUTTER RATE : this is self explanatory.

-------

the velocity multiplier may seem like a pointless control at first, but these three controls are designed for automation.

this plug in allows you to easily ramp the stutter rate, for example, or fade-in the stutter.

the trigger/stutter note combination means that you leave the original key free for use. For example, C1 will play C1's sample as normal, but you can set C3 to play C1 stuttered. Automate the controls for the duration of the trigger note and you have complete control over the stutter. All midi data is forwarded thru the plugin except the trigger note.

If you wish to have more stutter triggers, simply chain up the trigger filters.
A modular host like energyXT will let you save presets of stutter chains/combinations, as well as map the controls to CCs for tweaking parameters live.

------

NOTE: currently this renders the MIDI data monophonic... :s this was made in one afternoon (and is my first synthedit creation) so i haven't tried to get polyphony working... this means that any midi note-on will trigger note-offs for the current note. It's maybe better to put it on a specific stutter track til i get this sorted - i.e. whole drum sequences with simultaneous notes won't work thru it, as all the midi notes choke each other. don't let this put you off trying it tho! it's still massively useful for stutters!

:) i've not got SE installed on my computer so i can't check it, i hope this was the final version. if i remember rightly it's a bit of a mess in there, for which i apologise! let me know if there are any problems.

well i made it to do what i wanted it to do, and it does that perfectly :) although it's obviously best with energyXT, that's something that doesn't bother me at all so as far as i'm concerned it's done and i'm unlikely to do anything more to it :)

feel absolutely free to do anything you like with the .se1 - i'm sorry that it's probably a bit of a tangle as i was in a rush to make it! but if you wanted to put the workings inside something of yours go right ahead! or if you want to just improve it in any way (such as to make it allow polyphonic midi thru) then go for it. it's there for the mangling :)

just found this again, i think i'll have to make something similar but in C++ so i have total control over it.

anyone have any suggestions for features?

What a great plug, thanks for bouncing the thread. :tu:


Off the top of my head. How about pitching changes for the stutters?

you could also try phutboyslim from the link in my sig.

<edit> - It will definitely not do what you want :dog: Must learn to read :oops:</edit>

phutboyslim is way cool anyway...

One question, why is it preferred to use in ext?

Edit: I can't get it to send midi signals to a vst in cubase. i could try the ext demo.
