This week, I was going to review work to date, but I am behind where I wanted to be, and I feel good enough to do more work on the necessary elements of my project. This week, I will focus on Research (Landr).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have done a small progress check for myself and found that I haven&#8217;t looked at the AI-generated track yet, nor the mastered-in-AI track. I want to look at Landr today and its capabilities so I know what I can do to speed up my workflow. Working on my smaller tracks, intended for &#8216;levels&#8217;\/areas in the game, will happen on Thursday, where I want to talk to the tutor about what I can do. We have already been messaging on Teams back and forth, and I feel like the in-person support will be more helpful than texting one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There have been multiple issues trying to log in to my Landr account, as I can&#8217;t seem to remember which (out of 4) emails I used to sign up and pay for my subscription. I&#8217;ve looked into one email, but alot of the features aren&#8217;t included in it, so it can&#8217;t be that one &#8211; this doesn&#8217;t help at all, since I want to be able to play around with the plugins\/instruments so I can get a feel of whether they&#8217;re going to help me, not just by words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thursday 10\/04\/2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, I will read through Landr&#8217;s list of courses to see how to use the program better. As the tutor was not in today, I didn&#8217;t find it easy to progress with my track, so there won&#8217;t be as much work on what I&#8217;ve written\u2014otherwise, I&#8217;d be regurgitating information. I will better show what I have learnt when I use the plugins and tools to see what I can do with them tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Friday 11\/04\/25<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Landr has a mastering plugin that I somewhat <span style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px\">like<\/span>,&nbsp;and that is because I&#8217;m not confident in my own levels\u2014I personally enjoy listening to my music at a lower level, and I&#8217;ve set the levels on my own title track a bit too low. So when I inserted the track into the mastering tool, it merely raised the audio up to a studio standard\u2014it didn&#8217;t do much else, though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want some of my level tracks to seem disjointed at a first glance, so I also found this on the plugins page; <a href=\"https:\/\/app.landr.com\/plugins\/details\/lofi-pitch-dropout\">https:\/\/app.landr.com\/plugins\/details\/lofi-pitch-dropout<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lofi pitch-dropout that can make the track sound a lot different and maybe even &#8216;glitchy&#8217; with the pitch shifts and flux it offers, with an example posted by the producers of the effect, Yum Audio. I like how this sounds, and I want to try and play around with the Vintage Player and Broke VHS settings when I download it on my laptop and begin track work again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"LoFi Pitch Dropout by Yum Audio\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BFd7useU-sQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Updated Weekly Project Reflection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Week<\/td><td>Original Plan<\/td><td>What Actually Happened<\/td><td>What I Learned \/ Reflected<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>8<\/td><td>Review progress and start experimenting with mastering.<\/td><td>Had login issues with LANDR but watched tutorials and started learning the platform.<\/td><td>Realised mastering tools have a learning curve; I needed more time before testing tracks.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mon- Fri Review work to date Monday 07\/04\/2025 My illnesses are getting better with time.
