    Hi , does anyone know a preset for this shimmering arp in one of the popular vst synths, sylenth, massive, diva etc.

    arp is at 1 second into the song.
    Its a normal enough sound , I'm pretty sure I've heard it before but it sounds nice here

    Thanks for the responses, the link Baxter provided sounds exactly like it. I will have to make the triangle soundwave with the key tracked lowpass and highpass.

    Donald is the man. Huge fan of him and Steely Dan. Ha ha, I'm suprised it's not a melodica. lol

    Hi guys ! I was browsing the web looking for this exact sound after a week-end of listening to "The Nightfly" and stumbled on Baxter's answer. Sadly the first link is not working anymore. Would it be possible to put it up again ?

    Thanks a lot for your help !

    Most likely a custom hybrid patch by Rob Mounsey. Sounds like harp & bell. FM7??
