Cthulhu looks interesting.

Thanks guys. Sounds quite cool. Now, on principle, I should not be getting this, as 2013 is the year I've resolved to learn to play a lot of chords in various keys, and to stop being such a gearslut. But I suspect those will go out the window... damn. It's just like quitting smoking -- "I'll do it tomorrow".

There should be an "ood" mode.

This new plug strongly intrigues me, but, i red some of you said it's great especially for people that are actually good piano/keyboard players. In my case, i know the basics, but i'm not that good playing notes and creating chord progressions with my midi keyboard. i spend a lot of time on them trying and trying. Do you think it would be useful to me anyway (apart from the arp function, that looks amazing)?
Is it a tool that provides inspiration also to those that are still learning/trying?

Its a tool for anyone IMHO. I understand what it does, and the theory behind it, that in many ways can be an impediment sometimes. If it sounds good than it is good. I think any standard of music theory can use this and not just for keyboard players.

BTW the arp is awesome too. FFS I will never get to bed tonight.

The first thing that got me was the chord mode. They are the chord progressions from well known Bach and Classical pieces built in. Played consecutively you would get most of the piece. You do this by playing chromatically up the keyboard. There is no direct correlation to the key you press and the chord. Just by trying different key presses you get some amazing progressions. You can of course assign any chord to any key ( up to 128 ) if thats what you want to. Its more difficult to explain, than to just do it if you know what i mean.

There is also an Arp ( I havnt stated on that one yet !!!!)

Let's say a chorale has 10 different chords in it (for argument's sake). Are you saying that the lowest 10 keys on the keyboard are each assigned to one of these chords, taken in order? If so, what happens when you press the 11th key? If you press a key more than once, will you get the same chord from the progression each time, or will it cycle through the progression? Can you load your own midi files to use as chord presets/sources of progressions and save your own chord presets?

Thanks!

Yes to all Q's . The chords of course could be in any order or on any different keys. You can have no chord on a key OR reorder them in a multitude of different ways OR create from scratch OR learn a seq rom a midi file.

Is there an AU version?

Ood are from dr who and have a face that kinda looks like that, in case nobody got the joke. anyways........I'll get my coat.

[Gamma-UT]

Is there an AU version?

There is. I haven't tried it yet as it will have the same limitations as any other AU effect with MIDI out.

Here's a quick and very dirty Cthulhu video.

It isn't as entertaining as Cookie Monster but I do sound a bit like him today..

sorry for the poor quality, a much better video will be up this weekend.

Thanks for that

I'd be keen to see in acation what it can do with imported midi files

looks pretty cool. Stupid question, does it function while the host is at stop?
