Project 6

In project 6 I had to make a loop using Sytrus and I had to make a volume envelope, a LFO envelope, a pitch envelope, a resonance envelope, and a key mapping envelope. The main pattern (pattern one) is Sytrus with a volume env, a pitch env, a resonance env, and a LFO env. The first pattern has a techno type sound to it and plays throughout the loop. The second pattern is FPC Ambient Groove 3, its kinda fast paste but still works with the loop and sound good. The third pattern is FPC Break beat still fast but it doesn't stay on this pattern for to long, it switches back to the second pattern then back to the third, then back to the second, then back to third, then back to second. The fourth pattern is my Base of the loop. Its the default Sytrus with frequency ratio 1.0000x, which makes the Sytrus sound more like a base than a piano or flute. In my opinion this is a great loop and sounds awesome, but why don't you take a listen and tell me what you think.

Project Five

In project five I had to make a loop using Sytrus. For the first pattern I use Sytrus and made it have a scratchy sound to it (very noisy). It starts with just one note of the Sytrus (default Sytrus). I made two automation clips (fruity filter cut off auto clip and default volume auto clip)for the Sytrus, that makes a kinda of scary swoosh type sound leading into the loop. The second part to my loop is also default Syrtus, but this one isn't scratchy it has more of a techno sound to it. This pattern is a kinda fast pattern, that I also made an automation clip for. The automation clip for this one though isn't the default volume its Fruity Filter cut off frequency. I was gonna add Fruity Filter resonance auto clip too, but I decided not to because I didn't like how it sounded. Its a short loop but sounds good to me. Take a listen and give me some feedback on it. Hope y'all like it.
