Arpeggios & Sequences · Session 05
Create Epic Arpeggios
15 min · Arpeggiator + theory · No patch cable needed
The arpeggiator, a plucky patch, and one music theory trick that carries the whole thing.
All eight arpeggio modes and the hold behaviour that isn’t obvious — including how to jump to a new chord instead of adding to the old one. Then the patch: bright and plucky, with oscillator 4 as a second LFO for rhythmic filter movement, or two square waves blended in the modulation mix to create a pattern neither could produce alone. The theory half is one number pattern for every minor scale, plus stacked fifths that you shift up and down.

Tip: Turn oscillator 4 control off when you use it for modulation. Left on, the modulation speed changes with every note you play — fine for pitch, wrong for a steady rhythm.
