Type: arpeggiate :: Pattern a -> Pattern a

The arpeggiate (alias arpg) function spreads chords of note numbers over time.

For example, using the 1.0 chord name notation & older list notation:

d1 $ n (arpg "'major7 [0,4,7,11]") # sound "superpiano"

arp

Type: arp :: Pattern String -> Pattern a -> Pattern a The arp function takes an additional pattern of arpeggiate modes.

For example, using the 1.0 chord name notation (root note / chord type / additional notes above the chord):

d1 $ n (arp "<up down diverge>" "<a'm9'8 e'7sus4'8>") # sound "superpiano"

The different arpeggiate modes are:

up down updown downup up&down down&up converge
diverge disconverge pinkyup pinkyupdown
thumbup thumbupdown

The different chords available are:
