Project 5


This is my project 5 and for this project I wanted something that really clicked. So, first I made my pitch envelope for my first pattern which was the pattern that almost sounded like a banjo. It didnt sound like a banjo at first but when I added the fx tab to it, it started to sound more like a banjo. Then to top it off I changed the way the wave was shaped and made it rise really fast and then drop off to make it have a plucking sound. For the other pattern I used the volume envelope for it. I made the synth and at first it needed some work. So what I did was I added the cutoff filter to it to make it have almost a whiney sound to it. After that I just changed the shape of the wave so it was almost the opposite of the other pattern. It starts out really high then drops down fastly and then stays at a low pitch. Then I put it all together and got my project.

  1. This is by far my favorite of your projects. Excellent description- I heard all of the the items you mentioned. Instead of "banjo" use the term "plucked". It's more common music tech lingo. You nailed the automation sweet spots, and your delay time is perfect. I hope you find the time to go back and make this a full-scale song rather than just a short loop.
