A VST plugin with tracker-style note input that outputs MIDI to host?

[antic604]

Is there such a thing? Like Redux, but with MIDI output?

I think Sunvox does

(also runs on LINUX and iOS!

Maybe reViSiT?

Did you find anything like this yet? Perhaps we need to harass Taktik to give Redux MIDI Out instead ha.

That is a rare form of note input, I prefer an internal piano roll like Stochas (free). Nora and Phrasebox also have an internal piano roll (in a way - you'd have to look at them to see what I mean - it is a 'relative' piano roll, with the low note related to the lowest note you feed into them, like an arpeggiator).

No. Let's do it

Count me in. But something tells me it won't fly...

Teletype in VCV 2 can do this (it's got a 4-channel tracker-like portion of the interface for storing numeric patterns, and you can use that for note numbers, lengths, whatever).

I'm used to telling Eurorack people "Teletype can do that..." and it amuses me to be able to do that on the VST side as well now

There are a few tracker commands like sample offsets or reverse playback that obviously couldn't be generalized to any synth, but there's nothing stopping a tracker from performing most of its functions over MIDI. Note effects like retriggering, vibrato, portamento, chiptune-y arpeggios, etc. all work fine, at least in Jeskola Buzz (the only tracker I've used to control VSTs). For pitch based effects, you just need an instrument that's able to accept pitch bends independently on different MIDI channels, MPE-style. Conversely, for a tracker VST sending MIDI to the host, I guess the host would need to be able to interpret multi-channel MIDI correctly. Aside from that, there shouldn't be any technical barrier preventing a tracker plugin from working.

While this isn't quite the same thing, someone has already made a tracker plugin for Reaper, though I've never used it, not being a Reaper user myself:
