- Yes, I know...nasty problem. What you need to do is anylize the arpeggio and
- the melody on top of each other. Create a pattern with the arpeggio so that
- oo, every 2 measures or whatever fits is different...different enough so that
- when placed with the melody, will create a more perfect harmony.
