Class 53 - Changing The Beat

Post 136

Changing The Beat

Today's class I continued to work on making music for the game. I started by listening to the music from last class and deciding that it needed to change. After some major tweaking I started to get a new sound that I liked. Then I added some patterns together and ended up with something that wasn't too bad. But even after that it wasn't the best. So I did even more changes and tweaked the sounds to something a little softer. The end result is a creepy song that sounds like it belongs in a unknown secret location or something. The song itself has a vibe to it that just kind of says "Unknown". Sadly i'm still not as good at making music as Howie, so maybe I am the only one who will get that feeling from this version. But, here it is.

Here is what the pattern system looks like. Basically you make patterns on a keyboard layout and then you can repeat them and add them to this "Playlist". It then plays them from left to right.


This is the "Piano Sheet" which allows you to place the keys (The green rectangles). Then when the current position of the song (The Green wave moving to the right) reaches the front of the key it plays the sound based on the length of the current key.
