«240 plucks» by Luka P.

on 14 Feb'20 15:52 in rythmicpatternspluckingsoothing

using Pluck.ar with PinkNoise as input and Patterns - major scale with sequence: 1,3,7,8 and randomly 10,11,13,14 at some weighted random intervals. at 50bpm it becomes quite soothing. Needs JPverb from sc3_plugins.

nice texture; also sounds good with other pluck noise types (e.g. BrownNoise)
