Welcome to Week 6, my time perception is completely skewed. Though it is 22/04/24 I feel like I’m at the beginning of my project again and I have been going through some bad personal issues recently so the analysis might not be up to a great standard at all. Anyway, I was told I should be able to complete my song bye tomorrow and I hardly think I can with the lack of willpower I am running on – I have the structure down and need to revise it before making changes.
About two hours later I have revised the structure and all is in order and now I have to change the saw synth because we cannot find it on the triton and therefore must change it with something I can navigate to easier. Though this is no problem as I have tweaked the chorus synth to fit into E Major scaling and re-recorded to this new instrument. My stomach is hurting though so doing this and focusing is going to be a chore. Thankfully though, looking back on this now, it is 23/04/24 and I may have zero sleep, but I’m ready to create.
I have exported my song with the full structuring in my “Original Composition” page on Digital Space and can begin minor tweaks, but first I have to go through and edit my accidental stereo track so I can make it mono. Using this helpful youtube tutorial, I learnt the wonders of ‘Utility’ in Ableton Live.
I am in the process of creating an audioless video of Command and Conquer gameplay footage so I can overlay the mp3 of my song over to create a mockup of what my video for Youtube can be. This is actually easy to do as I have Paul’s (Graphics) help to make a short video to put the song over.
