Notes node
Note Strum
Takes a chord's simultaneous notes and spreads their onsets across time in ascending pitch order, like a strummed guitar, while keeping each note's original gate length intact.
What it does
Note Strum is a note node: it makes, filters or changes notes before a synth plays them. It takes notes in and gives notes out.
Try it
Feed it block chords and set the spacing to 20–40ms for a natural strummed-guitar feel instead of a stabbed chord.
