I made this track in Mixcraft, Somethings I changed in Ode to Joy is the instruments, tempo, cut of parts, added parts, and more. Some challenges that I face while making this track is when I plan how the song should sound by transforming the track enough. Some things I added in the track doesn't sound good in it so I have to think of something else to add. It became easier after I got everything planned and made the changes, the only things I had to do is to add the sound effects, and where the sound should be heard.

Transformed Ode To Joy

This track is a piece played by xylophone. One thing I kind of had to stop is how I should start the second page of this piece. I then stated randomly putting notes in the measures then listening to them after finishing some measure and replace them somehow if I don't like it. After finishing, I then had to look for Bs and Fs to take out. Lastly, I just added some dynamics then pick a title for this piece.

The Climax

This track is based on pi, and is following my code which D=1 and follows on. Some challenges I had was when I had to make the notes for the left hand for this piece because I'm using piano, and I also had to make the piece more creative.

Life of pie

My mood of this track is electric. My track's pattern is basically A, B, C, then back to A. As the track goes, some of the sounds have been cut to fit or make it as a individual sound. There are many layering in my track too.  Some of my challenges I faced were that I had to think which tracks I should pan and which tracks can be layered to sound good.

In this piece I chose a midi file and figured out the form and the structure of the piece, then I cut the tracks into pieces of small tracks so I can first split them into sections for getting ready to remix. I then relocated them in different places to transform the piece. I also deleted some tracks as some didn't fit in the music piece. In addition to remixing the tracks, I also put in some effects in the piece, and fixed some of the volume.  Some of the challenges was when I remix and relocate the tracks, I had the make sure that the piece sounded smooth, since the music was pretty rough. I had to delete some sections that I cut and move them elsewhere again.
