Project 7

Hey guys, this is my newest project which involved making my own synth sounds in sytrus. I explained how those sounds were made in previous blogs, so check those out if you are curious. So, other than those synth sounds, this loop is made up of a single drum beat, a sound called STR_Harpsy_C4 (which is a sort of mandolin kind of sound that i used for the "bass") and a nature sound that starts off the song. The loop has an a b a format, and in the b section the riff is transposed up 2 to give it a little more of an ear catching sound. The only real trouble i had with making this loop was creating a drum beat that fit because i had already made the riffs up. I overcame that by using the ghost channels and putting in the bass drum and clap sound where i thought it should go. Enjoy!!

January 7, 2010

Today i made a drum beat for a section of my loop and a new synth sound. Its halfway between a saw wave and a square wave (i was looking for something a little harsher in sound but not to much). the prefilter is set to 10% in operator one, and the reverb color is set to warmest. the sound isn't quite done yet, but its on its way.

January 5, 2010

I had alittle set back today... something went wrong with my synth and i had to create a new one. Good thing i had written down what i did! other than making that synth again, i created a nice bass line to go with my first pattern and i think that i will be back on track by next class.
