Sytrus Project 6

This project wasn't one of my favorites, but it was a lot of fun to do. For the main melody I used the SAW wave, and then added some chorus to it. I used the SINE wave to back up the saw wave, and loved the way the two sounded together. I also added bass to help fill in parts that sounded empty. To start the song, I automated the volume for the saw wave, the bass, and my drum loop. I also faded out the saw wave and the drums to end the song. To be continued...

Automation

This project was a harder one for me; I started over two times with new ideas. It was like having writers block, I just didn’t like anything I came up with. When I finally came up with the guitar patterns I liked, the one thing I had the most fun with was automating the volume. I liked the idea that you can make the volume change every time you play the loop, without having to do it yourself. Also, I've always liked the idea of fading into and out of a song, so I used that in my loop. Enjoy! :)
