That little sound in the background, I presume? |
The rhythmic chord progression beginning at around :55, when the filter starts opening up, I think. It sounds a bit like the decay/release of the filter envelope was cutting off at the back of each note causing a fluctuation in the pitch and that effect wasn't precisely lined up rhythmically with the rest of the elements. There seemed to be some variation in its occurrence, however, so it's hard to nail down.
If you have a second track synchronized with the chord progression there seemed to be a neat little panning artifact going on - but a very small noise. Otherwise it may be an oscillator that's creating the panning noise, in conjunction with an ASDR controlled filter closing.
Regardless of the sound, as soon as you get done with the final pitch bend in that progression, the clattering goes away. If you want to be rid of it, you might try adjusting the note length and/or toying with the filter envelope, so that it's not as pronounced. I'd go with note-length, first, making certain that they are only one or two beats long, since the ADSR seemed dependent on the length of each note.
For what it's worth, I liked the sound. It was the timing that I noticed was a bit off. If it doesn't have to do with the note length - or you've already made them uniform - then I'm not sure what could be going on.
Hope this helps.
EDIT: I just remembered I also set all of my velocities to 64 - unless a variable velocity is called for. A filter controlled by velocity might (also) be the cause of the gremlin.
