COM381soup Assignment 2

To be honest I don't know if I like this one more than the original, but I added to the range of the piece and changed some notes around to sound cleaner and cover more space.

Improvement to my first upload. Added a beginning to have the end feel more in place as well as added a lower end to have the sound feel more complete.

For this version, I improved a few things. First, on the first version I was using one of the pre recorded MIDI tracks for Piano, which did not give a very natural piano sound. For this version I switched to the Grand Piano and it sounds so much more natural. I used an actual Piano to record this, and for some reason while recording some notes that I should not have pressed recorded and make a few bits of the song sound unnatural. For this version I went and fixed those bits so that it sounds better. Finally for the end of the song I slightly modified the ending so that it sounds a little softer and not too rushed.

A moody strings piece. Was going for movie cinematic like wandering around Jurassic park at night type of sound. Not perfect but I'm happy with it. Low end reminded me of a fog horn hence the name.

Improved version of my assignment 1. I changed the beginning and the end and got rid of some stuff in the middle I didn't like. I used multiple tracks to have different settings and audio effects on the instrument at different times.

I added a bassline and layers. Tried a filter, disliked it. Made it sound more "evil" as per the trap beat guys notes. Don't like the ending, but it's a solid improvement from where I started. Definitely more chaotic. Increased the release to 3.5ms to make it sound more lunar like and not just a boss fight.

I tried to find a sound that would take me to the streets of Miami. I started a new song from zero trying to follow a better structure and drawing some notes.

SoupAssignment2: Miami Streets

Sadly had a hectic week so I could only dedicate some time yesterday to work on this piece. I like what I've done for the beginning, I think the idea is very raw and needs expanding and I had some fun ideas, but the clock forced my hand to semi-abruptly move on. Middle section is incredibly underdeveloped, and the ending just sort of happens, but oh well!

I tried to incorporate one of the random motifs I had in the original and I forced myself to use the same patch I had before (with minor alterations). This was a bad idea, as I don't know how to arrange for a brass-like sound, and just kinda threw stuff at the wall, and most of it didn't really stick but with little time to edit it is what it is.

Still, could sound worse. I like to imagine this being the two halves of a winter storm, the lackadaisic and warm indoors, and the harsh and hectic outdoor storm.

Assignment #2 - New track with a different instrument, the Guitar Jazz. Used high and low notes to envoke a sense of nostalgia to the hit games, Minecraft and Legend of Zelda. Enjoy!
