0xy Power Chords?

[FuzzyLizard530]

So I've been tinkering with FT for a little while now, and I'm having a bit of trouble with the 0xy effect. What if I want to arp a power chord? I've tried using the following:

006
060

but it doesn't quite come out how I want it to. ideas? I know I can make an instrument for it, but switching instruments can be a pain sometimes, and I prefer to do it with the effect codes...

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried 07C yet? From what I know, you would define a power chord this way (please correct me if I'm wrong). Depending on what you want to achieve, you may actually have to make an instrument for it, but maybe this will work too.

Dr. Mario is correct. What is called a "power chord" is NOT root + diminished fifth. It's root, perfect fifth, octave. So 07C are the notes you want.

Hey, if you know how to read music here's a theory page I made for my students a couple months ago, hope this helps!
