I think.. not sure what to call this one. Here's the description from Slot D:

This is a three-part algorithmic string band, controlled from the keyboard and slot D.

The top octave of a standard G2 keyboard will control the algorithmic arpeggiators that drive slots A and B. Slot B hosts a guitar-like sound (synthesar) and A is a strummed/bowed instrument (f'oud). The lower two octaves of the keyboard control a bass drone in slot C.

To play, press a chord in the top octave and then press Run on the master clock. All performance controls are in page A-1 in slot D. The wheel and pitch stick change the center pitch of the "guitar".

If you press run before playing a note or chord in the top octave, tuning will be random.

I recorded a little pece with it (the name is longer than the song :')

Very nice. I like this; lots of fun. I tried playing the patch but can't do as well as you. How do you get the strumming sound?

That's done by slot A; variations 2 and 3, if I remember correctly. The next few variations are bowed sounds.
