| Description: | GateArp was an idea carlosbtlr( check out his devices) had that I made using my 3 gates interface as a tool to create arpeggios by transforming chords in a clip. It's divided into two sections, Pitch and Gate. Gate, bottom, uses one row of gates to determine the pattern based on the amount of steps and the length of the pattern with controls for randomizing, shuffling, and inverting the pattern. In the bottom right are controls to quantize, make legato and "retrigger" the pattern. With retrigger off the pattern with continue across all chords uninterrupted,with retrigger on the pattern will reset at the beginning of each chord. Pitch,top, uses a grid to determine the pattern of the pitches. you can set how many steps to use and the range of steps 2-12. Clicking in the grid will place a note corresponding to that note in the chord, if the chord only has 3 notes but there's a range of 4 you can choose wether the note should be transposed up or down an octave or left at the original pitch. There's also a retrigger option for the pitch pattern that works independently from the gates retrigger. It makes a lot more sense once you've played around with it for a while:) |

I added a feature that calculates and sets the subdivision slider automatically based on a given time span and the selected grid interval, as having to set that manually was one of the most cumbersome aspects I found.
I also added a similar feature that sets the polyphony and steps sliders automatically based on the number of polyphony voices of a selected chord.
The only thing I find missing in it, and the only reason I still use Cream sometimes, it's the lack of polyphonic support in the output, so if you ever feel like getting together again for another round, just hit me up, haha
