now i prefer writing "sequences in midi" instead of straight arps - just sounds cool - especially when pitchshifted
I agree! I love writing ''sequences in midi''. This was written played off the synths arp but programmed it on the Roland MC500, which took forever for me since i was new to sequencers at the time (90's).
This track is all juno 60. The bass line is a pattern on the 707 triggering the arp. Same with the main synth line. Swing and the juno arp is one of my favorite sounds ever..
arps are super cool, but especially weird ones just at the right beat - like just an Arp in fifths or something - it really catches your ear - like "Spiral" intro

just a Juno 60 running the bass arp triggered by the 808. ambient droning is the JD-800 that i've wedged a matchbook into the key to hold it while i tweak it in real time.
i need to stop parading this one around, but it really is my favorite track i've done in a long time, warts and all. need to do more like this, but better.
Nothing very 'gearslutz' ish here, I'm afraid, but I got a proteus 2500 recently, that's just stuffed with arp patterns.
This video has most of the percussion triggered by the arps, and the basslines were 'arp'd' into my mpc, & edited a bit, and there's some live triggering of some of the proteus's own sounds, from my midi keyboard.
Having 32 channel/tracks on the e-mu is cool, as I can just flip through the midi sends on the keyboard, to access 32 different arp/patch (or 'presets' in E-mu language) combinations.
yup, all bass is from an AN1x. I was just using the arp paterns to program the mpc, to sequence the an1x sound engine, if you get what I mean. then the an1x keyboard is triggering the proteus's percussive sounds. hats, bongos, etc. the 'miscellaneous' & 'perky things' patches are pretty wild too. Great for that last bit before everything kicks off into a new bar
this is excellent man I love the chord movement particularly the last 2...nice harmony coupled with proper synths - magic.

fantastic work - very nice track...synths sound very poignant and alive-glad you used analogue...buzzingfly release - ewan pearson edit - nice!

Great work as people have said...I was yearning for some big held pads to build into the main section I have to admit...that would have been the icing on the cake for me...
An excerpt from a live improv - Tenori on the Ipad driving Omnisphere with some processed field recordings and samples, vallhalaroom and ubermod tape echo...
Here is a little snippet of something I was working on last winter, it is a Juno 60 arp with some delay from NI guitar rig, 2 layers of Voyager, and drums from Maschine.
Anyway, here's the Monopoly workshop from synthesizer.at site. This long demo with incredible arpeggios makes me serious GAS for Monopoly. I had once a chance to buy it for 900 euros, but instead I bought CS-40M for same sum of money.
