  • How to convert the audio clip of a chord to a 7th. or a minor (p.2)

I've never used pitch correction (yet) but it also strikes me that if you did indeed know where tones and overtones laid on the spectrum it wouldn't be that difficult to isolate the third or whatever and adjust it a semitone to where it needs to be. In fact I think I've seen this done in one of the plethora of tutorials I've watched.
 
Perhaps going in reverse (kind of) of what I contemplated here would be better. Find a chord that has similar properties to the one you want to achieve (in this case lets do G to Gmin). Use eqing to remove the major third and as many of the thirds overtones as possible. Then copy the track and reverse the EQ so only the removed tones/overtones are audible then use pitch correction to bring them down a semitone to achieve the minor third. Blend both tracks and the now lowered third should create Gmin.

As you say, theoretically interesting, but not very practical.
 
Wrong tool for the job.




Indeed. There are so many MIDI options with things like DimPro getting a decent chord sound for almost any instrument is simple.
 
One thing that is curious about all this though... what kind of patch set limits the chord qualities in this manner? Seems kind of useless being completely stuck using Major chords.
