PoiZone 3: Envelope and LFO Sections
I finally finished this project haha. As i said before it has a nice bass sound and a drum beat that continues throughout. There are three different poizone parts. I used the riff machine for one or two of them. I don't remember. The first one has an automation clip for panning going slowly from left to right for each measure. A "Heaven chorus" comes in for a while in the middle of the song. This too has an automation clip for panning. All of the poizone loops have the Envelope change thing with the attack, but it's really heard the best in the middle, when the chorus stops for a while. The song gradually ends with just the bass part. The whole song is more upbeat than the last one, but still laid back, which is what i was going for.

Another update on second A D S R
Unfortunately i have not finished this week like i hoped, due to unexpected filming and the lack of having class. However i have gotten much further, i have a base down for my song with a base part and drum beat, i'm just trying to fit in a loop of the poizone synth that works the best with the whole piece. I may finish next class but probably won't have time to post, so i expect it posted in time for two classes from now.

Update
I havent gotten too far on the actual song part of this project, but i've been messing with the different sounds i can make with the new tool. i actually at one time made a siren sound that was pretty realistic. I'm going to lean towards a bit more upbeat sound. It'll have one drum beat throughout and probably a strong bass line with the poizone synth accenting it with different loops. I'm shooting for finishing the project by the end of next week

A D S R
For this project i was kind of sick of doing up beat intense songs, so i made one that was much more laid back. It has one poizone synth that has different loops written for it. This synth had a pretty quick attack. basically everything else is also tweaked to some extent. My second poizone synth is the low bass part that is also laid back. That one has a long attack. I put in a laid back drum beat, and then a couple measures of more laid back drumming. The song ends with the bass part by itself with no drums. The song sounds a little jazzy, which was completely unintentional at first. As i tried different things, it started to come out like that, and i liked how it sounded.

Poizone
I started with one poizone synth that had everything adjusted to it. The arpeggiator is set at RND, and the range is two. Then, i made a one note loop, but it changes within the one note, so it sounds cool. This is played throughout much of the song. Then an FPC drum loop comes in on the left, and keeps switching between left and right. there is a "chorus Dream" loop for a while, a drum fill, and the then the next synth. I originally kept both synths together, but the first one got anoying in the background, so i took it out. This new synth has everything tweaked too, but no arpeggiator. I wrote a little loop for it, combined an FPC and let it play for 8 measures. Then the song kind of starts over, except for a few changes, such as some more drums, and it fades out at the end. I'm really liking this poizone, it's so much much quicker to make the exact sound i want.

Working on Learning Poizone.
So far i am pretty close to done. I have been experimenting with all the dials and switches on poizone, making many different sounds. One that i really like that i have been using is the arpeggiator.I like how it makes one note keep moving, so it almost sounds like a little loop in itself. i also am using the controls for sustain, delay, attack etc. Those are really handy too. My "song" isnt very long, and it only has two main parts with one higher, and one kind like a bass sound. I don't really know why i went to the sounds i did, i just liked them. i think it would be most under the techno genre. By next class i should have it up hopefully.

SVF and XY Modulation in Sytrus
I start off witha bass sounding sytrus and wrote a catchy part that is the main rhythm for the whole song. Then it comes in with my sytrus with the SVF and xy modulation. then a kind of creepy/epic vocal comes in. i realized that my songs always sound almost empty, so i filled this one up. a fill comes in and then a nice FPC beat. then 4 measures of a sytrus preset to guitar comes in. the bass comes in alone for two measures, and then a cool guitar part i wrote comes in. it ends slowly with the creepy vocals finsihing it off.
