Spex Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Hi ! It's my first post. In Main Stage I have a situation where I need two sounds layered and the first sound plays a chord and the second sound only plays the top note of the chord. A Poly to Mono script ? Does anyone have any idea where I can find something like this ? Thanks ! Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spex Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 I thought I would try to explain this better. The music passage I am playing needs 3 sounds. A marimba, a pad, and a lead trumpet sound. The marimba is playing 2 notes. I am using the arp plug in to fake a rapid mallet strike between the two notes. A Marimba roll. The Pad is playing the same 2 notes with no arp plug in. The Lead Trumpet sounds needs to be able to play ONLY the top note of the chord being played. Right now if I add the trumpet sound on a layer it will obviously play everything on that key range (set the same as the pad and the marimba) What I would like is a plug in that will scan what I am playing and only play the top note. Then I can have the trumpet sound playing just the lead melody line. I am playing something with my left hand already so I can't use that hand for the trumpet sound. I hope this makes mores sense. Thank you for looking and if anyone has any ideas I would love to hear it. I have scoured the web and haven't been able to find the answer. Mac Mini i7 Quad core, 16 gigs RAM, Yosemite OS, MainStage 3 (latest version), Reason 8 (latest version), Nektar P6, KX8, Audiobox1818, Alien Ears Monitors.

Unheardofski Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I have made a script earlier that sort of does this: Polyphonic Filter. But it is close to impossible to make it perfect because of legato notes blurring the logical line of what is the top note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
