Arpeggio Lab is your go-to device when creative inspiration runs dry. Designed to feel like jamming with an imaginary bandmate, this Player Device for Reason approaches arpeggiation from a musical, not mathematical, standpoint. It separates the arpeggiator into two main components: Anchor — a steady groove-defining pulse — and Movement, which fills in musical gaps with expressive arpeggiated shapes. This split results in patterns that feel lively and organically played.
With four unique Hold modes, you can latch chords and focus on sound design or improvisation. Add complexity or variation with Modifiers, which allow muting steps, adding ratchets, or shifting octaves. The Humanize function mimics a live player’s touch, while the built-in randomizer and over 80 included patches open new doors to creative exploration. Sync easily with your DAW and send your favorite arpeggios straight to the sequencer with one click.
Whether you’re producing melodies, layering textures, or just breaking through a creative rut, Arpeggio Lab is the perfect companion to help you rediscover the joy of spontaneous music-making.
