Project 2: The Chop Tool, FPC, And Transpose Functions

This is my file for project 2. It begins with the drum beat alone, then the bass comes in right before the guitars come in. They switch between playing three notes on different positions on the guitar. The drums change to a more up-beat drum beat while the guitars and bass continue. The guitars then break into a solo type pattern while the drums and bass stay constant to keep the time. The guitar has one time alone then another solo happens before breaking back into the verse again, then ends with a quick solo. I tried not to use too many different guitar parts because that would make it too complex.

Project 1: Drum Loop

This is my drum loop for music tech class. It is 6 different fills along with 6 unique fills. The beats are influenced by bands such as System of a Down or Metallica. They are not overly fancy, because a drum beat shouldn't be more complex than needed, or they take away from from the other instruments. It is mainly a rock/metal drum feel, but one of the beats has a latin feel. The fills aren't extremely fancy and the bass drum keeps the time during them. Enjoy!
