REQ: Nextmidi Divisimate 2 for macOS
What if there was a piece of software that could split up anything you play on the keyboard into separate voices and send them to different instruments in your DAW?
With the right template, it would become possible to perform realistic orchestrations on-the-fly and record everything directly in a sequencer. This would enable a whole new workflow for composers to simultaneously compose and perform.
It is with this vision in mind that we created Divisimate.
Divisimate is a stand-alone software that runs independently from your DAW. It creates 32 virtual midi ports appearing in your sequencer as separate MIDI devices. Inside Divisimate, the entrance splits up any note input from your MIDI controller into individual musical voices. Each of these can then be routed freely across the output ports, which are then accessible in your sequencer.
Most sequencers allow you to select a different input port for every instrument track. Once you’ve done that, every routing in Divisimate will represent a different instrumentation that you can then record in your sequencer.
In addition to this, Divisimate’s functionality is extended using plugins allowing you to:
Transpose parts, send key switches, scale dynamic controllers or even create patterns and rhythms.
Split the keyboard into three regions to perform melodies, bass lines, and chords independently.
Bring in small inconsistencies using the real-time humanization engine.
Save and manage presets to switch instrumentations and voicings instantly.
Control your orchestration using the remote.
