# Arpeggiator Tutorial

Roger B. Dannenberg

This page describes an arpeggiator example in Nyquist.

## What does it do?

An arpeggiator plays a sequence of pitches over and over, usually outlining a chord.

## How does it work?

The file demos/src/arp.sal has example code to create arpeggiator effects. There are comments in the code to describe how it works.

## How can I use it?

    SAL> load "arp.sal"

Or, open demos/src/arp.sal using the Nyquist IDE and load the file with the load button.
You should hear a short piece. There are simpler examples in the code -- read the comments in the code to see all the examples and to find commands to try them out.
