Try these settings:
Volume: 6 15 13 11 9 8 7 / 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 (tweak the release point to suit)
Arpeggio: 12 0
Duty cycle: 1 0
The volume curve is based on a fairly standard decay-style curve (with sustain). The key is in the arpeggio: a 12 0 arpeggio gives one frame of an octave higher than the tracked note, and this produces a sort of 'plucked' effect -- the added low step at the start of the volume curve and the duty cycle (starting at 25% then switching to 12.5%) is to reduce how distracting the initial pluck is.
