Through applications such as Pro Tools and Reason, we were able to learn and create pieces of music that involved the usage of four chords on the piano, a drum beat, bass and other various types of instruments. Through these applications, we were able to understand how to mix the instruments together in an ordinary fashion, use global reverb, and add other types of effects that develop the song into something more professional; and frankly sounded better.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Pro Tools<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In pro tools, we developed our understanding on four chords and their importance in the structiure of the song. Throughout the process, we were able to incorporate four chords through the piano, bass and other instruments.<\/p>\n<p>Below is some samples of beats we made using pro tools:<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-playlist wp-audio-playlist wp-playlist-light\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-current-item\"><\/div>\n\t\t<audio controls=\"controls\" preload=\"none\" width=\"1118\"\n\t\t\t><\/audio>\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-next\"><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-prev\"><\/div>\n\t<noscript>\n\t<ol>\n\t\t<li><a href='https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/BijaH-4-Chord-Song.wav'>BijaH-4 Chord Song<\/a><\/li><li><a href='https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/BijaH-Boom-Beat-2.wav'>BijaH-Boom Beat 2<\/a><\/li>\t<\/ol>\n\t<\/noscript>\n\t<script type=\"application\/json\" class=\"wp-playlist-script\">{\"type\":\"audio\",\"tracklist\":true,\"tracknumbers\":true,\"images\":true,\"artists\":true,\"tracks\":[{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/BijaH-4-Chord-Song.wav\",\"type\":\"audio\/wav\",\"title\":\"BijaH-4 Chord Song\",\"caption\":\"\",\"description\":\"\\\"BijaH-4 Chord Song\\\".\",\"meta\":{\"length_formatted\":\"0:31\"},\"image\":{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/audio.svg\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64},\"thumb\":{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/audio.svg\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64}},{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/BijaH-Boom-Beat-2.wav\",\"type\":\"audio\/wav\",\"title\":\"BijaH-Boom Beat 2\",\"caption\":\"\",\"description\":\"\\\"BijaH-Boom Beat 2\\\".\",\"meta\":{\"length_formatted\":\"0:30\"},\"image\":{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/audio.svg\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64},\"thumb\":{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/audio.svg\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64}}]}<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\t\n<p>Below is a screenshot of the process creating these beats using Pro Tools:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-371\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-12-at-10.25.59-AM-2-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"359\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-12-at-10.25.59-AM-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-12-at-10.25.59-AM-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-12-at-10.25.59-AM-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-12-at-10.25.59-AM-2-540x304.jpg 540w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-12-at-10.25.59-AM-2-1140x641.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-12-at-10.25.59-AM-2.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 359px) 100vw, 359px\" \/><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Required<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Add large screenshot of Pro Tools Interface with a few plug-ins visible by shift clicking the virtual instrument plugin name under Inserts A-E column to display more than one plug-in and artfully rearrange the plug-ins for the screenshot<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><strong>Reason<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>An additional resource we used to create various beats and pieces of music was Reason. Yet unlike the basic four chord beats that were basis of the songs in Pro Tools, through Reason we were able to create more EDM music. Therefore, there was more emphasis on the structure of different types of instrumental beats and the effects that could be added onto them to produce various types of tones.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some short pieces I created using Reason:<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-playlist wp-audio-playlist wp-playlist-light\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-current-item\"><\/div>\n\t\t<audio controls=\"controls\" preload=\"none\" width=\"1118\"\n\t\t\t><\/audio>\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-next\"><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-prev\"><\/div>\n\t<noscript>\n\t<ol>\n\t\t<li><a href='https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/BijaH-RPG8-and-Matrix.wav'>BijaH-RPG8 and Matrix<\/a><\/li>\t<\/ol>\n\t<\/noscript>\n\t<script type=\"application\/json\" class=\"wp-playlist-script\">{\"type\":\"audio\",\"tracklist\":true,\"tracknumbers\":true,\"images\":true,\"artists\":true,\"tracks\":[{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/BijaH-RPG8-and-Matrix.wav\",\"type\":\"audio\/wav\",\"title\":\"BijaH-RPG8 and Matrix\",\"caption\":\"\",\"description\":\"\\\"BijaH-RPG8 and Matrix\\\".\",\"meta\":{\"length_formatted\":\"0:32\"},\"image\":{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/audio.svg\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64},\"thumb\":{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/audio.svg\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64}}]}<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\t\n<p>Below is a screenshot of the process creating this piece using Reason:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Other than the short exercises we completed using Reason, we were also assigned to create an EDM-* bar piece. Through this project, we had to vastly develop our skills to allow various instrumental beats mix together in a fashion that sounded good. Along with this mixing we were also adding various effects to each instrument to either allow it to echo, become louder, etc. Overall, it tested our abilities to take risks mixing beats together and creating a product I was unaware I was capable of making.<\/p>\n<p>Below is the EDM- 8Bar Piece I created using Reason:<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-playlist wp-audio-playlist wp-playlist-light\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-current-item\"><\/div>\n\t\t<audio controls=\"controls\" preload=\"none\" width=\"1118\"\n\t\t\t><\/audio>\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-next\"><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wp-playlist-prev\"><\/div>\n\t<noscript>\n\t<ol>\n\t\t<li><a href='https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/BijaH-Reason-EDM-8-Bar-Song.wav'>BijaH-Reason EDM 8 Bar Song<\/a><\/li>\t<\/ol>\n\t<\/noscript>\n\t<script type=\"application\/json\" class=\"wp-playlist-script\">{\"type\":\"audio\",\"tracklist\":true,\"tracknumbers\":true,\"images\":true,\"artists\":true,\"tracks\":[{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/BijaH-Reason-EDM-8-Bar-Song.wav\",\"type\":\"audio\/wav\",\"title\":\"BijaH-Reason EDM 8 Bar Song\",\"caption\":\"\",\"description\":\"\\\"BijaH-Reason EDM 8 Bar Song\\\".\",\"meta\":{\"length_formatted\":\"0:15\"},\"image\":{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/audio.svg\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64},\"thumb\":{\"src\":\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~BijaH\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/audio.svg\",\"width\":48,\"height\":64}}]}<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\t\n<p>Below is an additional audio file that my Digital Media teacher Mr.Flo produced by mixing all the EDM-8 Bar Songs everyone in my class created:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/394938429&amp;color=%23ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;show_teaser=true&amp;visual=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"300\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Audio Productions\u00a0 An additional topic we covered in Digital Media was music production.
