This bright plucked synth arp features a sixteenth-note arpeggio in A minor running for 4 bars at 120 BPM. Each note is crafted from a blend of sawtooth and square waves with a slight pitch sweep from 2.5% above the target frequency back down, producing a sharp, lively attack. The sound passes through a resonant filter with a cutoff sweeping from 900 to 6100 Hz, shaping a plucky tone with a fast ADSR envelope (attack 1 ms, decay 75 ms, sustain 16%, release 45 ms). Notes alternate stereo positions and include subtle octave jumps, with highpass filtering above 180 Hz and a final saturation boosting harmonic richness.
It suits genres like synthwave, electro, or pop where rhythmic, melodic plucks add movement at moderate tempos. Use it as a rhythmic arp or melodic motif, layering under pads or basses for contrast. Watch for its mid-high frequency presence to avoid clashing with vocals or lead instruments, and consider complementary low-end elements to balance the mix.
