Synth Project



While i was tinkering with the synthesizer for this project, i ended up making this kinda fluty sound, and it made me think of an ocarina, and then i went with that to refine it and make this cover of the lost woods theme from the "Legend of Zelda" series. The ocarina is a high tension sine wave, i believe, with some "noise" put in to give it a windy sound. the second synth sound that i needed for my project is the background sound that i made. it is to sounds overlapping, one a bent saw wave and i think the other is a triangle wave. i added the filters to taste, and put them through some FX. The envelopes were ok, though i had to redo them after i had been messing with the preset ones. so, after making the two sounds, i added some preset sounds to flesh out the rest of the song- the tambourine sounding thing, a drum sound, and a bass sound that comes in later. Anyway, i really hope you like this song, 'cause i put a lot of work into getting the song right, and i really like what came out. this may be my favorite project so far :)

Automation set



This one i don't like quite as much. i couldn't get any good ideas, so i just added automations to tempo and volume. the music had a chop put to some beeps and guitar with a background effect of vocals- or are the vocals and beeps switched in that? oh well. any how, though this isn't a project that i am particularly fond of, i hope that you enjoy it to some degree. ciao.
