3/9_Original Beats


Basic and Advanced

Today we're going to be playing our original beats in class and checking out each other's production styles. I want to start playing these at 1pm, so I want you to start turning them in at 12:55.  Please put them in the Dropoff folder (Pickupdropoff>BAVAC>Dropoff>Period 5).  Save this as:  your name_original 3-6.

You will be getting a grade on these, so be sure that your beat includes ALL of the following items:

Basic 
  • Be at least 16 bars long (end on Bar 17)
  • Include a Redrum with at least one 32-step drum beat. (I would prefer two)
  • A melody using either the Subtractor or the NN19
  • Another melody using either the Malstrom or NNXT
  • All notes quantized.

Advanced 
  • At least 2 verses2 choruses
  • At least 5 instruments
  • Some basic mixing (volume and panning)
