Subject: How is a nice arpeggiated line made?
Original Message 1/24 23-May-05 @ 09:28 PM - How is a nice arpeggiated line made?
Such as the ones in trance. You know, those fuzzy trancey seq. arpeggiated lines.
For an example of one, check out the the song "airwaves" by Rank 1. There are a dozens of remixes too, all which of feature that awesome sequenced line.
I'm trying to dissect it now and plug it into the 'matrix' on this reason demo. But it seems like its a combo of 2 different sequencers being played. The whole line seems monophonic though.
Any advice?

solution:
delay -3 pong set
filters -hp with some high resonance
the right sound (try subtractor) you have a lot of tweek room
with those elements you should have no problem.

Thats one approach, but have you heard of what I was talking about? It seems to be MUCH busier than your intro.

if its that 7 note top line thing then ? your probably trying waaaaaaaaay too hard , they arent the most anal of producers - id bet it was just lashed out on a JP8000 with synced JP delay. Thats all it sounds like to me, the reason it sounds so pingy is the note quantisization or patch sustain/decay
just draw it in on sixteenths, throw a reason delay on it on triplets pretty dry, then another on bar and in subtractor pull all ASDR sliders down on just about any pitched up bass patch to make pluck, then just throw up sustain byu little ammounts until it goes pingy like that
honestly tho, youll prob find it was just a jp standard delay job

Also, can be found in that 'final fantasy' song all over p2p networks. its like this quick furious arpeggiated line. most types I hear it, it takes on a very punchy staccato form. In the ATB remix of Airwave, it takes on this supersaw waveform with a longer release.
It almost sounds like the classic up,up arpeggio with say, a C chord playing, but with C2 on the bottom of the keys being held down so it cycles. But then again, the cycle sounds completely random.
I obviously can't try it since I dont have any gear right now, but I'm pondering it.
Any more clear? Im sorry to be so ambiguous!
