Thanks for your help on this. I have it going pretty close to the recording
now.
Just out of curiosity, is there a way tune the delay to BPM number, like
you might see on a guitar pedal or something?

Hi-certain
I'm new to Yoshimi, and I'm looking for some advice in imitating a
synth sound for a concert in December.
I'll be playing Paul McCartney's Wonderful Christmastime (
https://youtu.be/V9BZDpni56Y).
I'm wondering if I should use a synth with the arpeggios built in or do
them manually.
With the built-in sounds, the SynthPiano/AnalogPiano3 or AnalogueBass
sounds the most like it or I could use the SoftArpeggio1.
If I use the latter, I would like to edit it so that it sustains for a
shorter amount of time and possible increase the rate to match the
recording.
Thanks so much for your help-
Jon
Hi Jon,
I don't recommend trying to do that manually. It quickly gets tiring and is
quite hard to keep steady timing, especially while trying to sing as well.
If you start with SynthPiano/AnalogPiano3, once you have it loaded, click
on the
'Edit' button. Then in the new window 'Effects'.
Click on the effect selector and from the dropdown list chose 'Echo'.
Adjust the 'Delay' control until the repeats come at the speed you want
(if you
hold downs the ctrl key you get much finer control).
The 'Fb' control will decide how may repeats you hear before it fades out.
If you only want one repeat set it to zero.
If you want exactly 3 repeats do the same for effect number 2 but double
the
delay time - might need to fiddle with this a bit.
Of course, as soon as you have it the way you want SAVE IT!
Hope that helps.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
