mode off, chords are then triggered following the pattern of strumming keys in the MIDI loop.

In other words, chords are plucked on the keyboard and strumming patterns are applied to them

through the MIDI loop player. Note that loops are note limited to strumming keys and can also

include melodies and chords.

4.5.1 Creating MIDI Loops

Loops for Strum are easily created in your favorite sequencer by respecting the following rules:

• All the events must be on MIDI channel 1.

• The loop must begin at the start of the ﬁle and ﬁnish at the end of the track. In other words,

if the track lasts for four bars but there are notes only in the ﬁrst bar, Strum will still loop

over the four bars.

• The tempo and the time signature must be deﬁned at the beginning of the loop and must not

change during the rest of the loop. Strum indeed ignores tempo changes occurring in the

middle of a loop.

• The loop must be recorded on disk on a ﬁle using MIDI format 0 or 1 and having a .mid

extension.

Here are other advices which help to create more realistic loops:

• Always slightly vary the velocity of strumming keys in order to get a more lively result.

• If the loop is short, it may be preferable to repeat the same patterns many time with different

velocities for each repetition.

• If the loop includes chords, always make sure that they are well quantized and that there is

always a strumming key played at the same time. This will avoid unwanted strokes when the

loop is played while the Auto-Strum mode is switched on.

• Avoid using MIDI controllers whose effect can be changed by the user. For example, the

pitch wheel can either be used to create a bend or a slide; the hold pedal can either hold the

current chord or be used to trigger an alternate strum.

4.5.2 Parameter Override Keyswitches

When playing a MIDI loop, the value of the currently loaded playing styles parameters located in

the bottom part of the interface will be used to play the loop. It is possible that certain MIDI loop

require speciﬁc values of these parameters in order to sound well. It is possible to set the value of

these parameters in a MIDI loop with the help of special override keyswitches and ensure that a

loop is always played exactly as intended by its creator. For the list of special override keys, please

refer to Appendix B.
