You're very welcome.

I tried to follow the DRY (Dont Repeat Yourself) principle. The real
power of those filters lies in using them in a network and combine
various individual plugins.

e.g. limit note range -> enforce scale -> note to chord -> strum

In your case you probably also want to limit the range of notes that
will be held first.

Linear chains can easily be modeled in Qtractor, Ardour, Carla or other
LV2 hosts, but complex networks require ingen or custom jack-midi-port
connections.

Cheers!
