Project 5 Vocodex

For this project i had alot of trouble. I came up with a synth sounds using a sytrus sound i customized then put bass and drums under it. i couldn't find a loop i liked using the mp3 file share program that i was origionally using, so i found another web site where i could find FDR's inaugeral speech. I used the 'only thing we have to fear' part of the speech, then put it into edison, sidechained that to the vocodex, and then dragged it. Last i added a guitar solo using the slayer channel, i used the keyboard and the record tool to input it. I had worked on this project for a couple days, but every time i went to save this project, my computer froze. this cause my project to get deleted several times after i had spent an entire period working on it, but eventualy my computer co-operated and i now have it saved and completed.

Project 6, Sytrus

For this project, i used a customized sytrus synth with 3 operators, effects, and a filter. I used the riff machine to come up with two different parts that would be used through the sytrus. I used an A-A-B-A pattern. I came up with a somewhat busy bass line, which was very difficult to come up with because the riff machine's pattern was cool but very hard for me to follow the chord changes, so i tried to figure them out by ear and then i made the bass line using the ebass on the slayer channel and used the piano on the record setting to put in the bass line. the second riff machine pattern was much easier to follow and was easy to make a bass line, i also used the piano to write it. I decided that this project needed a more simplified part, so i added the simsynth and put in long drawn out notes to complement the intricate sytrus and bass part. Last i added a rock beat on the drums and some fills and ended the song with a layer with 5 different crash symbals
