Project 3 Automation

For this Project i wanted to mix together a dance kind of grove with a warble type effect on the instrument. For instruments i used FPC for the drums. I used an ambient groove for the first measure because i really like the diversity the ambient FPC drums can take. As for the change in key i did halfway through i used a break beat to change up the idea that i was using. the main instrument i used was the SimSynth. I used different wave forms for each octave making the lower octave more rounded like an actual bass. I automated the length of the notes so halfway through it became very short and gradually grew throughout the project. i also made the volume change as well and slowly disappear. Finally i made a automation that sounded somewhat like a phaser to the simsynth. Enjoy

  1. Great sweeping effect on the simsynth. I would have like to hear more bass in the final mix though. Also, when you change key (modulate), consider using the drums to build up (or set up) the change. A simple drumroll or fill can add a lot of lift and provide some impact. A cymbal crash on the downbeat of the new chord is a nice touch too.
