Project 3
I didn't really have an inspiration for this project, I just wanted something that sounded like a funky beat, but with some intensity. So, first I put in channels sim synth and fpc and put in fpc drumandbass 02 to give it a fast sounding beat. Then, I used the riff machine for the sim synth channel and came up with a beat that went along good with the fpc loop. Next, I took the sim synth and used the cut filter and set it at different levels so each pattern would sound different. After that I changed the pitch of each pattern so they would contrast even more. For the last pattern I just left the kick for the drums and took out everything else from the fpc loop so it would be a nice fade out.

Project 2
My inspiration for this project was Sean Amm. For this project Sean made a smiley face as a song and I listened to it and the beat sounded good. So, next i just changed a couple patterns and kept the beat and tweaked the song a little bit so it sounded good. This is not a good way of making music and I dont recommend using this strategy for writing music but in my case it worked. Thank you Sean. Also, my transposition stayed the same for the first pattern and for the second pattern I turned the first pattern way up so the lowest note on pattern 2 was higher than the highest on pattern 1. Then, for pattern 3 I took pattern 1 and turned it way down so the highest note on pattern 3 was lower than the lowest note on pattern 1. The patterns were completely different and made the song contrast but it made a good sounding song. For chopping, I used the chopping file trance 6 because it made sort of a dance sound which made a good beat for the whole song. Then after the song was put together I tweaked it, added a couple effects, and thats my song.
