Hello! I am thinking about making a plugin that does something similar to what Zrythm's Chord Pad feature does (see picture).
For those who didn't have a chance to use this feature, a short description follows. There are several pads, each can be configured to represent a chord. Clicking pad produces a corresponding midi signal, which can be caught by an instrument, so that you can play chords just by clicking pads.
Are there any similar projects? Is it super difficult to implement? I have some experience in programming, but I have never used LV2 to make plugins and rarely use C in my work.
Motivation: I like Ardour, it's more stable than Zrythm, but I also find that it lacks some useful stuff for composers (like this chords pad or scale highlighting), so I decided to try adding these features via external plugins.
What do you think?
