MIDI effect dedicated entirely to arpeggiated/sequenced instruments. This deal ends on October 4th, don't be late to the party!
Instruments & Multis
In the design of ARPOLOGY, Sample Logic felt that it was important to
use a wide spectrum of instrument recordings spanning all genres and
sound types such as: choirs, woodwinds, brass, strings, world
instruments, sound effects, various field recordings, industrial tools,
machinery, synths, and much more. Sample material was carefully and
selectively hand picked from key sample sets from the entire Sample
Logic vault of over 200 gigabytes of already recorded material used in
SL's previous products. Once gathered and selected, this material was
then used as the clay, which now has been morphed and animated into a
series of never before heard instruments that will blow anyone away.
The instruments are divided into 3 main categories:
Cinematic / Organic
Electronic / Effectual
Percussive
Multis are also divided into 2 categories:
Instrument Stacks
One Note Glory
TECH SPECS

Polyphonic Sequencer – Works the same as the arpeggiator but all the notes are played at the same time
Rhythmic Gater – Only affects the sound amplitude.
Three buttons below the main arpeggio window determine which mode (arpeggio, poly or gate) you will be using with a simple click. The Arpeggiator also offers a lot of scope for refining the sound of
