Does someone achieved to cover the Equinoxe 3 bell sequences ?

I understand the fx and sequence but I'm still trying to find the right sound behind.

There two looped sequences :

Left : RMI (sequencer) -> Flanger -> Small Stone (that made the sound strange and sequence random like)
Right : RMI (octave random mode sequencer) -> Flanger

I think I can make a MIDI-file with how I think it is. But there is a reason-file overhere with the intro, maybe you can do something with that?

Oh sorry, I was not clear. Sequences are simple, Song book is right for left part (right sequence is missing). It is about the sound.

I just got a correct sound now. Thanks.

Thnx Vince! Intresting :D

The RMI onboard sequencer is nothing more then a simple up-arpegiator. It's being started by pushing the sequencer tempo control. If you press no key then the sequencer is still 'off'. If you press one key that key is scanned and played back according to the tempo specified. If you press more keys they are all played back sequentially in accending order (low key first then the less lower etc..). One can use keyboard peg's (or matches or anything that will hold a key down) to make sequences with a bigger spread then your fingers allow.

As for the random sequence mode... it was actually a design flaw. You have to hold a key and then turn the RMI on. The final problem with my virtual RMI is this random sequencer mode... It's a pain in Reaktor...

Since the bell sequence contains pauses between and/or double (=same) notes it must be that he played them manually on the RMI (Left channel). It could be he recorded the loops on tape that way.

I still firmly believe it's the ARP + (Matri) Sequencer for both left and right channel... The bubbling sound R->L is most definately a nice example of S/H utilizing the 2600 (again :)) through the phaser.

Do you have an example of what you made so far?

Hi Johan !

Thank you for info about RMI sequencer functionning.

There are no pause IMO, Small Stone "cut" notes and make the sequence "random".

Hi Vince!

The result, what you have so far, is promising but still different compared to the original. If I get my ARP sequencer up and running again I'll try to do it on the 2600.

I have to agree on the no pause but I can clearly hear in that time (when there seems to be a pause) the same note again.. so double note evenly spaced (time) that suggests a sequencer. Such behaviour is not possible with the RMI arpegiator. Therefore: or played manually or a different machine...
