Hi all,
Is there a plugin that I can use in a DAW that allows me to play monophonic plugins polyphonically?
The goal would be to achieve what was demonstrated in this video, but ideally using a single, easy-to-use "mono-to-poly" plugin that is capable of doing so:

I've tried searching on KVR Audio and Google but unfortunately didn't have any luck finding one...
Does anyone know of such a plugin? Either paid or free is fine
Thanks in advance!

Unify is often brought up around here.
I don't have it but it's supposed to do all kinds of layering, including mono->poly.

If that fails, there's always the old-school way: Sampling....
C/R, dongles & other intrusive copy protection equals less-control & more-hassle for consumers. Company gone-can’t authorize. Limit to # of auths. Instability-ie PACE. Forced internet auths. THE HONEST ARE HASSLED, NOT THE PIRATES.

In the old days you would just pull up however many copies of the VST your chord requires and put the chord lines in each one. Requires patience and a little knob tweaking.

I just realized I had actually posted a video of Unify and a link to MPEfy
At first I intended to paste the link for both, then I removed the wrong one...
I guess MPEfy should also do mono-to-poly, but Unify does a lot more things at a lower price.

For anyone using Reason and who doesn't want all the complexity of Unify (great product, but can be overkill if all you want is mono2poly), there is a $9 rack extension called Blamsoft Distributor. Works great.

In Bitwig you can do that easily with its native instrument layer... Other DAWs might have as well some options. I remember I did a scripter to MPEfy mono synths in Logic... All these would load multiple instances of the mono plugin like MPEfy does it. MPEfy is probably more convenient if you start editing parameters...
