It's probably best to look at the project file first, because I suck at explaining this. What I'm trying to achieve is have the exact same thing that's happening right now in that file, but have the Scales & Chords player functioning on top of it.

At the moment, the chord is just in the RPG-8 note lane. The rate of the arp is being modulated by a slow sine wave LFO. I was trying to use a random LFO to generate notes, then feed it through Thor to transpose, but it wouldn't always play a different note. I tried a bunch of different things, I've been stuck on this for a couple of days now.

I haven't, as it requires Reason 10 and I'm on 9, but I might upgrade. If I can do this, it'll open up a lot of possibilities.

Not sure if this one can help you out? Can't test cause at work.

Thanks mjxl, I had a muck around with Ivy, but couldn't figure it out yet. Does it actually generate CV signals? I also tried to use Aftermath CV Generator, running through Breakout Box or MoPol, but couldn't get it working. I feel like there's something fundamental I don't understand here.

Cheers for that! I couldn't get the combinator to open, probably because I'm on Reason 9, but I'm about to upgrade to 10, just backing up my stuff.

If you're going to Reason 10 some more options will be available, like CV Player Tap. Can crack our heads a bit more on this :V
