Project 6: sytrus

This Project, project 6 was about making your own synth sounds in order to create your own loop. After making 2 of my own synth sounds I put them both into the piano roll and pulled up the riff machine. I found two different loops for my synth sounds in the riff machine, and added them inot my playlist. I worked wit ha fpc drum loop and also a bass line to fit my synth sound. Overall I didnt want my loop to sound clustered so I kept my loop simple and catchy.

Today I worked on project 6 using the ghost channel, which helped me put my bass into my loop because I had trouble finding a loud and strong enough bass. I added more drums also

Project 5. Vocodex

Working on this project was fun because we got to play around with a recorded voice and make it sound a lot different than the original.This project wasn't any harder than the rest because the only thing I did different was put in a voice into my loop. working with loops now though is a lot easier and I use the previous things we learned and I know more about where I can change everything in my loop and also change it up so its not as boring. Overall in this piece I used a lot of high hats and also added bass. I used the new riff machine to add bass into my loop, which is a lot easier than guessing what will sound good. I also added things like a kick and snap that repeats throughout the loop too. The voice that I added was German voice reading poetry that now sounds more like an alien, haha. So that pretty much sums up my Project 5.

I'm finishing up my vocodex project, I added a couple more sounds today like a new symbol and also using the riff machine on bass added some bass to the loop too. I fixed some of the akward sounding sounds as well and im almost finish with it.

Today I worked on project 5 using the vocoder. I found my sound last class and today worked on a loop around it. Using FPC and a "plunk" sound it was called. the german speaking sound was put into the loop with snaps and also a kick drum. I like where my loops going.
