22nd November - Composition










Today I got more parts down and double tracked my bass line and drums. I spent a long time experimenting with the Limiters and Expanders trying to get my drums sounding large and PHAT.

Also worked on some bridge chords.

18th November Composition

Twisted the drum track, and came up with a solid chord progression and chorus chord sequence. Also automation with effects using SilverVerb and TapeEcho.

21st October

Today I got down the basic drum track through out the Song on Logic's Ultrabeat.



I wasn't too sure about the sound qualities or the sequencing that Logic could offer so I looked into Rewiring Reason with Logic live so Spent a while learning how to do it and getting it done, however the drums didn't totaly work in Logic so will be spending some of next lesson doing the slight adjustments.
