Caustic: Using Multiple Arpeggiators with a Single PCMSynth

This Caustic tutorial shows how you can use multiple Arpeggiators to trigger notes on a single device. This allows you to create intricate, interwoven arpeggios of the same sound. For example, one arpeggio could be playing notes in a lower octave at one rate (quarter-notes, for example), while a second arpeggiator plays a sequence of 16th-notes on a higher octave. The interaction of separate arpgeggios with different rates - triggering the same preset sound - can create some really interesting results. This also works well with PCMSynth presets that have completely different samples mapped across different parts of the keyboard. For example, an imported Soundfont that has a bass sound in the lower octaves and a lead sound in the higher octaves. You could trigger the bass notes with a slow, up-and-down arpeggio while separately triggering the lead notes with a fast, down-hold-up arpeggio. Hopefully this tutorial will give you some new ideas about using ModSynth's Arpeggiator with the Machine Input module. Go beyond the usual "1 Device = 1 Track of Notes" setup, and create some complex, multi-layered arpeggiated tracks. Give it a try!
