The Chord Voice Splitter (version 1.0) is an innovative Max4Live device created by MrD that revolutionizes MIDI manipulation in Ableton Live. It allows users to distribute individual notes of a chord across multiple synthesizers rather than confining them to a single instrument. The device features two components: the Recorder, where chords are input, and the Receiver, which channels specific notes to chosen synths.
For example, in a C Major chord, the root note can be routed to a Minimoog, while the third and fifth notes are sent to a Juno 60, and the seventh goes to Serum. The unique playing technique requires the performer to hold all notes and lift only one to trigger the output, promoting nuanced control over polyphonic arrangements.
Moreover, the device supports a “3 channel” mode to send middle voices to a secondary receiver, enhancing compositional possibilities. This straightforward setup integrates seamlessly with Ableton Live (version 12.1.1) and Max (version 8.6.2), catering specifically to users keen on expanding their MIDI Effect capabilities for rich, polyphonic soundscapes.
