Project 4: Automation

For this project I used the same basic drum loop throughout the whole sound, with the Boobass and the SimSynth for the guitar and bass parts. The beginning of the song fades in with the basic chords and bass riff playing through once. This basic chord and bass part plays twice more, only this time another guitar part plays over it. This guitar part is somewhat of a solo type riff, and i used an automation on the filter cutoff to give the riff a different sound as it is being played, as it gets lower and then higher pitched as it goes on. The next set of guitar parts doesn't have the chords under them, and the pan back and forth between the two right and left headphone. The song cuts to just guitar and bass for one pattern then fades out with all instruments playing the basic chords that the song began with two times.

Project 3: FX

This song has a tempo that is a bit slower than normal because to me it sounded like it should have a more slow drawn out sound to it. The bass with a slight amount of reverb drives the song forward, and the guitar has a wah wah effect on it. There is a clap with an echo on it every two measures which keeps the beat along with the drums. The drum fill to get back into the main verse riff of the song has heavy reverb on it as well.
