Chapter 17 - Track structure (part 2)

Track structure (part 2)

NO BASS !
After some experiments with bass in the tracks, I decided that bass is not very good to be included in this type of track.
The track's structure is minimal, when I drop the bass in the track, most part of the other small sounds are inaudible. I don't know why, but this could be due to the frequency of the sound.
Another thing that put me off the bass was the minimal feeling of the tracks changing totally, and I was forced to have a melody; I wish to change all the direction I want to take on this project.

Currently, I am selecting the appropriate sounds for the Kaossilator for each background sound and drum loop. More updates soooooooon :)

Chapter 11 - The software

The Software

The software is separated into 4 parts.
1- Edit Window.
This comes as default with 16-channel Instruments. I never used this, but here is where all the music can be composed.
It's here where I can create the blocks and create the tracks... iffff (urggg)
* I do not use this




2- Mixer window.
Here is the mixer display, any time I move a button on the machine, it will show on the screen.
This has a CD room control and I can record outcome sounds into the (Edit Window), plus the machine just works, when I have this mixer window on. If I switch off the software, the sound in the machine stops.
* This is the only window open while I play. (Machines do not work without the software).




3- Style Window.
Here are the Drums and the Korg settings. I can choose the instrument sounds for each button in the Korg and I can set up the drum loops as long as I want or change the loop patterns, including more sounds in the drums, etc...
* I use this one to make the drum patterns that I will use in the machine and set up the sounds for the Korg.



4- Sound Effect window.
900 sounds can be replaced in this board :) 
* This is where all the background and sound effects are uploaded.



And here is the machine connected...


As you can see, the display and the program are not helpful!
Anyway, if this were a very professional sound Equipment, I would not have made this blog and I would not have been much interested in creating something different with this machine.

This is the only thing I touch while I play. The software is not needed once everything is set up.

Cool, for less than £ 20, I get an original toy and I can mess about!
