Re: More Tonal Theory: Arppegiators/Accent/Melody

[margaret noble <margaretnoble2000@yahoo.com>]

sorry, i wrote that confusingly!!!

i mean:

in comes an acoustic instrument, out goes a 4 part delay, each part is in different semi-tones, the fist delay sound is the same pitch as original, the second delay sound is up 4 semi-tones, the third sound is up 7 semi-tones up and the fourth sound is u 11 semi-tones up. So, a nice melodic sequence comes out when only one note is hit. play more than one and it gets busy and a bit unpleasant tonally. I would to configure the melodic delay in such a way so i can improvise a few notes and get some nice harmonies. i am thinking obvious that less pitch shifts are better but i am wondering if their are particular values of pitch shifts that are safer for playing.

make more sense?

just trying to follow Margaret's made up notation.
Not sure I managed that tho'.

It's a perfect 4th up,
(or a perfect 5th),
with a 2 beat delay,

mixed with the undelayed dry signal.


I used to prefer the 4th because my Zoom 1201 sounded
a bit flat when trying to do a larger stretch tan that.

It was a lot of fun to play guitar into that.
