Project 2. The chop tool,FPC, and transpose function

Project two was really cool I thought because you got to add guitar to your loop which I really wanted to do. Useing the chop tool made the loop sound cooler by switching up the beat with the guitar itself, and the fpc had really catchy drum loops too. I started off with a simple drum loop then added different sounding guitars to the mix. I came out with a hip/rock sound which i liked.

Drum Loop Project One.

This is my first project for music tech, a three part drum loop. Working on this piece wasn't very hard to do because there was a lot of different loops and fills to chose from, but then again it was hard because you needed to find the right drum sound that fit one another. I wanted to have a more rock sounding drum loop but in the end it sounded like hip hop. I wasn't inspired really for a certain sound, just something that sounded catchy. All three parts of the loop have the same symbol on every beat with a few other drum sounds between them, and the fills have a different symbol but have the same idea in getting louder to softer or softer to louder. Yeah well here it is.
