Two ways: 1) record the chords to be arpeggiated and have the
arpeggio itself be created in realtime when you play back the chord
track, and 2) record the actual output of the arpeggiator.
1) Cable an arp-object into the mixer strip containing the EXS.
Assign an Arrange track to the arp. Hit record, and play your
chords. The chords will be recorded and will be sent through the
arp-object to the EXS.
2a) Do as 1) first. Now you have a chord-track assigned to the arp
object. Cable the arp-object into the 'To Sequencer' object (Clicks &
Ports layer) instead of the mixer strip with the EXS. Assign an
empty Arrange track to the EXS. Hit record. The chords will play
through the arp and the arpeggio itself will enter the sequencer and
get recorded on the currently rec-enabled track.
2b) Realtime arp-recording: cable the arp-object between the SUM
outlet of the Physical Input object and the To Sequencer object.
Assign the EXS to an Arrange track and select this track. Hit record
and play your chords. The chords will run through the arp-object and
the arpeggio itself will enter the sequencer and get recorded on the
selected track.
