Within Midi you are limited to 128 notes. Within this range you could certainly produce some interesting chordal effects (one thought would be octaves and fifths phasing in and out).
And there are many patches out there to do this sort of thing.
But you are far better off processing the audio signal for any kind of interesting modulations.
- bambax 6y agoNot sure; by definition a software synth can produce audio signal on the totality of the audible range. To control these we can use notes + pitch bend or some kind of continuous signal such as virtual cv. So it seems that at least in theory it should be possible to produce any harmonics using just MIDI. Why would one want to do this? 1/ It's fun 2/ It should give more control about what harmonics are actually produced so maybe more interesting to hear. There are many MIDI effects around "harmony" but they tend to help with chord progressions, and not this AFAIK.
- themarkn 6y agoJust a note With MIDI 2.0 we now gone from 7-bit to 32-bit which makes a huuuge difference in terms of what can be achieved, no more 128-note limit!
