If you follow the Community forum as obsessively as I do, you know that @Squinky is working on a new module called Squinkytronix Harmony. This is a “simple” test patch.
Of course nothing is simple when I do it - I feed each of the voices (B T A S or Bass Tenor Alto Soprano if you’re a choir nerd) into a signal delay so that each mono voice is delayed by a useful rhythmic interval.
And then into an AS Delay Plus Stereo FX because everything sounds better with a little delay.
I limited the patch to free modules (besides the squinkytronix) but you’ll need JW, Impromptu, AS, and stocaudio plugins for it to work.
I’m now off to log a feature request with Alfredo for the AS delay to sum poly inputs to mono

Oh, nice! btw, Harmony is free, of course, just not finished or in the Library. Anyone who wants it can build it or download a build.
btw, looks like Harmony really had to struggle to make the root position GMaj (first one in the display)!
I don’t know what it’s doing on the inside. I do know that I could use a quantizer after Harmony to force it into a minor or modal scale. It sounds entirely too optimistic now!
I also did a patch with the Arpeggiator. I see how the arpeggiator is supposed to work, but to use it grabbing notes from Harmony’s output I had to mess around a bit with gates and S&H on the chord output to fool it into thinking I was holding down a chord. It could maybe use a mode where it collects the last N notes on the CV input in a shift register or something.

I think it would be “better” If I made the quantizer on my input expose other scales.
I have to confess I haven’t tried Arpeggiator after Harmony. Even though that’s why I made it. It might need some tweaks.
Some random thoughts:
- In a case like this the mono gate (where you found the bug) should work. A monophonic gate should “sample” all the merged CV inputs. Note “should”
*In a case like this you could turn on “hold”, then set “length” to like 8. Then it should hold onto the last two chords.
