Im interested in creating this effect in sum of tunes.

Skream does it great in some tracks,

Does anyone have any tips or techniques for getting this effect to work well?

How did skeam get it to sound so good?

Safe

At a guess (think request line's the main one of his I can think of with arps on it), sounds like he's changing the frequency of the arp (how fast the notes play) going from quarter notes to sixteenths,there's also a delay on there to double up the notes, and I think the main thing that makes it work well is that he leaves space after the arpeggio so that it breathes a bit more in the groove.

Another bit of advice would be listen to trance tracks and don't make it sound like them

Play around with them, all i can say really

don't overuse

Don't use an arp, do it yourself, heres some examples:

Safe everyone, anymore?

any software tips?

fl's 3xosc has an arp.

very useful, and automatable too

skream uses the v station for his arpeggio sounds, its a quality synth and skream uses it very well, it has some good arp, lead and bass presets, keep an eye out
