Re: [LAD] Quantise MIDI note/frequency to musical scale: algorithm?

2021-12-30 Thread Jeanette C.
Hello Yuri, thanks for your quick reply. -- Yes, simple mapping of one MIDI note to a frequency is easy, and the environment in which I work offers built-in converters for that. But, how to best quantise chromatic notes to a given musical scale like C minor or B Dorian? I would probably need

Hey hey, I'm currently working on something and need note/pitch quantisation to predefined musical scales. Some research has almost entirely yielded such features in DAWs and hardware modules that can do it. Is there a type of algorithm typical method to achieve that in realtime? I'm not
