Superchord

Superchord is a novel effect plugin based on multiple virtual strings that resonate in sympathy with the input audio material. The pitches of these strings can stay fixed, or can be played live with a MIDI keyboard, as an instrument.

Superchord can be used to radically alter sound and create complex, animated textures with an organic quality. It can also function as a special kind of reverberation to add a touch of ambience to your tracks.

Superchord opens new creative possibilities for musicians, producers and sound designers alike.
