Chordit | SoundShockAudio

Chordit by CodeFN42 is a MIDI VST plugin that turns single notes into chords. A dedicated chord-switch octave selects the chord type while the remaining keys play chords across the keyboard.

That layout lets you prepare chord choices and switch between them as you play, without having to finger every note of each voicing. It is suited to sketching progressions or performing chord parts from a MIDI keyboard.

Optional velocity scaling and randomization can vary the notes within a chord. Start and end delays can also be randomized, making it possible to stagger chord notes for a strummed effect instead of triggering them all at once.

Chordit is a MIDI tool rather than a sound generator, so route its output to a virtual instrument to hear the result. How to connect the two depends on the host; the discovery listing includes user reports about routing in different setups.

The developer provides 32-bit and 64-bit VST2 versions for Windows, with Windows 7 or higher required. The product page offers the current version and installation instructions, including which DLL to use for your host.
