    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.

    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??
