Pi Stomp and Guitar Synths

[Peetem]

I play in a cover band and use the pi-stomp exclusively as my multi effect pedal.  On my pedalboard I also have two Boss/Roland guitar synth pedals - SY300 and SY200.  These things are amazing.  Polyphonic and can emulate about any synth ever built.  I run my guitar through the "left" channel of the stomp and my synth signal through the right.  In this way, I can two have unique signal paths with their own effects (which I send to the board).

Anyway, I mention all of this to provide context to my next question - are there any synth pedals for the stomp that are polyphonic (can handle chords)?  If not, are there any easy ways to create them? 

I would much prefer to build another stomp that can act as my all-in-one synth pedal as my current board is huge.  Plus, I have a small mixer on my board and a bypass pedal that sum my two synths into one signal before it goes to the right side of my stomp.  I could eliminate two synth pedals, mixer, three channel bypass pedal, and a midi controller for those pedals.

Your usage of pi-Stomp sounds very cool.  Thanks for sharing.

These are the LV2's which appear to be polyphonic and available in the latest pi-Stomp software (v2.3.0-beta.1 - 2024-10-03 -

GuitarMidi: Pitch to MIDI

samplv1: A polyphonic sampler synthesizer with stereo effects.

Zyn: An LV2 port of the ZynAddSubFX synthesizer.

Sorcer: A polyphonic wavetable synth known for its "harsh modulated sub-bass driven walls of sound".

Helm: A polyphonic synthesizer with features like saturation and feedback.
 
Triceratops-lv2: A polyphonic synthesizer LV2 plugin.

XPolyMonk.lv2: A polyphonic version of the Xmonk.lv2 plugin.

Thank you!  I will check those out!

Welp, using the synth's is much more complex than it would seem.  Apparently there's no pitch to midi app, only pitch to CV.  That would be fine for single line synth sounds, but it cannot handle poly/chords.

I'm taking another approach using IR files and have made some progress.  If I get anything useful, I will post the details.  I'm currently working on creating a Rhodes sound.
