Hi! I thing arpeggiator is not the better option (not realistic, very automatic in attack sound).
You can edit a Prog, choosing Oscilator 1 with a steel guitar or similar multisound, with short decay and none sustain (Amp parameters) simulating a mandolin sound
In Oscilator 2, you select some acoustic guitar multisound, (and similar Amp parameters of Oscilator 1), BUT you must edit Delay value in Oscilator 2 (In Osc Page), If you increase Osc Value to max value the Osc 2 will activated
when releasing the key.
That way you can simulate mandolin sound.

Arpeggiator is one way to do it. The other way to achieve tremolo sound is LFO which you may use for a deep amplitude modulation of the oscillator signal.
Sorry about necroposting, it's just for the sake of future generations.
