Sure!
I see Chiastic Slide as a quicker method for chain selection with precise crossfading.

Let's say I have a rack with 3 instruments. They're divided into ranges: the first instrument covers 0-50, the second 41-84, and the last 85-127.

With a chain selector, I can evenly distribute these chains without any gaps, like hocketing.

To achieve smooth and morphing transitions, I overlap the chains and set fades, where overlapping is similar to 'width' Chiastic Slide.

In Chiastic Slide, you can adjust the distance between chains, but if there's too much distance, there are ranges where you won't hear anything.

In my previous message, I suggested keeping the chains equally spaced and change how long it takes to fade from one chain to the other, instead of the chain distance.

I was thinking about two values:

Width:
0 for short width, there are some gaps between chains
middle for equal distribution
127 for full overlapping, you hear all 3 sounds together

Fade Size:
0 for chopping chains without fading, hocketing
127 for maximum fading size, morphing

I love this.

it saves so much time doing fades, but when I have few instruments and a low width there is silence.

Personally I would prefer that instruments were equally distributed and width just increased the fade size between them, instead of width increasing the "radius" of a fixed point.

In other words, like Chain Selector works.

Maybe could be like a second mode?
