Week 7 #feelingpositive

4/6/2017

0 Comments

 
I had a listen to some of my music again on the weekend and I am now feeling a bit more positive. There is so much that sometimes I forget what I have recorded or made. At the moment I am working on making a theremin beat (thanks N for the idea). A suggested mixing the theremin drums I made with normal drums.

Things to do:
  • Get onto mixing and mastering- watch videos
  • Also loop pedal/equiment needed for live
  • Refine my track for Sound lab- components and flow
  • Conceptualise my live performance
  • Send theremin loop to M in USA  for rapping
  • Use limiters

Track specific goals:
  • For single line- use thick analog synth- sound card- record
  • Soft1 warm- add reverb
  • Silk horns- ask trumpet player or convolution reverb
  • Bass- low note then emerge or no chords
  • Trumpet libraries/operator- smoother entry & tone. Make it less bright- automate for later
  • Arrangement view- record brass
  • Returns- sends// mutiple

Reflections from my Wednesday session:
  • Theremin feels better when lower at belly-button height
  • Experimented with midi mapping
  • Condensed sounds- into 2 guitar rig files- easier to transition and combine sounds.
  • Going to try and midi map the track too for smoother performance.
  • Almost like having diff instruments/voices
  • Also mapped effects

Friday session
  • Experimented with looping
  • How to undo and clear loops
  • One with ephemeral sounds, one with distortion
  • Also a better setup for theremin rehearsal (pads on left side)

Some tips from A:
  • Can crescendo to desired note
  • Use different movements with tuning space
  • Have a conceptual flow of the piece and map it. E.g. brass, vocals distort/change- filter to blend in , theremin emerge so the theremin is not in the same space as brass and vocals (also a tip from S).​
