Today I finished my project 6, I finally got the right sound wave to put in it! My project is pretty good now, it makes a lot more sense.

For this project we had to use the sytrus tool and the riff machine t come up with a loop. Sytrus lets you make uyor own sound instead of taking one from the samples. We had to use A A B A style. For my project, I used a sort of technoish sound, and came up with a riff that reminded me of sadness and another of revenge. I also used two sound files, the theme of my project was shooting, first there is a guy that says no shoot, no shoot, you will hear gun fire, then a girl screams no. Then the sadness music with a snare drum, a closed snare drum, and a closed cymbol. Next the girl screams no again and the revenge music. After that there is more gun fire and the sadness music again. It's sad i no, but it makes a great theme! hope everyone likes it.

So today I worked more on my Sytrus project, I have the full riffs a want, I just need some fulls. I'm actually going to put a theme into my project this time! I have been looking for a person saying no on the internet,but i'm not have much luck. I'm confident that I will have my project done by the end of the next class.

Today we learned about the cytrus tool. This is to add effects on to our music, and put them music we generated and use it in the riff machine, which generates riffs from a single note. I thought this was pretty cool, I used the riff machine for other projects but I didnt know you could use your own sounds to put into the riff machine, this was really cool for me.

For this project we had to use a vocoded voice and incorporate it into our song. This is my favorite loop that I have made this year, I like more of the metal music. So this is a metal theme obviously, and I was thinking it would go good in a rock competition, because of the phrases I used. For the second vocoded piece, I couldn't find it in freesound.org, so mr. Rabuse took me into a room and showed me the snowball mike. This is were I recorded myself fo0r the last part of my project. Enjoy!!!

Today, I finally finished the vocoder song, the only thing I need to do now is post it on to this site. This made me feel really happy because it usually takes me about a week or two to finish a song, this took like 4 classes even with the mess up I made. So tomorow I will be posting my project and starting on project 6!

Today, i had to start over on my project due to what happened yesterday. So I went into the riff machine to get started and what do you know, there is my second piece to my project! Apparently the riff machine keeps the riff you have just selected in its file before you choose a different one, and I hadn't set a new one yet, that made me happy. So all i had to do today was come up with a new drum loop to go with the second guitar part. That was really easy, all i did was listen to the loop and decide wat pattern to put a snare drum, tom drum, and cymbol sounds in. F or the rest of the class all I did was look for a voice on freesound.org to find an ending. That's all I need to do to finish this project. I'm confident that Iwill be finished with this project by the end of this week.
