    Hi guys! I need some help trying to recreate the sound of this Stab/Arp. I have a sample which sounds pretty much like the same but I will love to learn how I can recreate it myself. Any one could help me with this? is the sound that goes most of the track. Thank you in advance [​IMG]

    This is actually quite simple & can be achieved in a number of ways.

    The technique is pretty much using a vocoder but the carrier signal would be a simple pattern of drums or white noise hits.

    In this case it would be running a simple pattern through something like NI Razor or using Resochord fx on Maschine or within Reaktor (where it originated)

    There are plenty of videos available on Resochord and on Razors vocoder capabilities - Check them out if you want to learn more about this stuff!

    Sounds to me that you just need to play around with adsr. On the original track seems like the have the root note sustaining with the rest chopped off. At around 1min 26 they increase the sustain and it starts to sound a bit more like your track
    I am, however, a total wanker so feel free to disagree
    cheers

    I'm serious - What you want to use is Resochord or similar - You can input notes with an apeggiator if you want or just play in a chord progression.

    AAS Chromaphone would be able to output similar sounds to this very easily but I think you would have to manipulate the envelope of the input noise / tick or whatever they call it that it uses to generate sound & that would be LONNNG.

    You could tweak an Oud ,Koto or Banjo multi sample Library available In Kontakt format and achieve it perhaps.Program the arp manually?
