Having no formal prior music theory understanding, I wanted to recreate a song I knew with a different production process. Using AVID ProTools, I was able to digitally create instrument tracks and produce a song. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Goal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My goal for this piece, I wanted to create a piano piece that was accompanied by other percussion-based instruments. Having created this in ProTools using MIDI tools, this was very easy to accomplish through the gallery of thousands of virtual instruments at our disposal. I\u2019m most proud of the way that I was able to play the piano because I have never learned how to play or knew anything about music theory. I learned a lot about how most modern music is created using this type of MIDI virtual instrument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music--1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-597\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music--1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music--300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music--768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music--1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music--2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music--2000x1125.png 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screen Shot of Session <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music-Album-Art.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-598\" width=\"840\" height=\"840\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music-Album-Art.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music-Album-Art-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music-Album-Art-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WillA\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Anderson_William-Expironmental-Music-Album-Art-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Album Art<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\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 title=\"Harry Styles - Falling (Official Video)\" width=\"950\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/olGSAVOkkTI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reflection<\/strong><br>I&#8217;m proud of the way that I was able to create a song that emulates some of my favorite acoustic piano songs.
