Auto Panned and Delayed Arpeggio

Now that I have my laptop back from service I can get back to experimenting with processing on my daily synthesizer sounds. For this arpeggiated sequence I wanted to hear it swimming around in my phones, so I started with some tempo mapped auto-pan, plus ping-pong delay, and reverb.

Nice Accents

This brief phrase from the Bitstream 3X arpeggiator has a nice combination of rhythm and accents. I am well impressed with the huge variety of rhythms, accents, and melodies possible with this feature on the BS3X and I’m not finished exploring it yet.

BS3X Arpeggiator Driving Tweaked MKS-80

Here’s another arpeggiated sequence generated by the Bitstream 3X. I’ve learned a bit more about the BS3X arpeggiator. For example, there is a keyboard mode that creates a melody based on the notes that are held down on the keyboard. Otherwise a note on the keyboard is the starting point for one of many preset melodies. More later on the details. For now, I’ll shut up while you listen.

More from the BS3X Arpeggiator

Continuing my experimentation with the standalone arpeggiator on the Bitstream 3X led to today’s sound. Once again I created it by controlling the Roland MKS-80 with the BS3X. I added some subtle reverb afterward to liven it up a little.
