Oscillators


Vix

A tricky one because it is somewhat unique to the ARP.   It is a pseudo duophonic sound.  Two oscillators, one isn't changing pitch and they're both going into a ring modulator. 

 

You could start with a  Hex Layer tone with two layers both sawtooth.  On the second layer, go to the pitch page and set key follow to 0, then tune that layer (course tune -3) to an A.  You'd also want to make both layers non-velocity sensitive.  This is the core part of the sound.

 

At that point you'd want to experiment with the Ring Modulator - this is a challenge on the PX-5S. It is really hard to get our ring modulator to really sound like the old ARP.  I wouldn't keep it 100% wet, I'd add a good bit dry signal back in and do your best to tune the frequency to an A.   Add some chorus to the overall sound as well.
