weekly agile strum meeting (M8)

By bryface on January 28, 2024 11:08 pm

Once again, M8 render, no samples - this week's focus was in trying to create convincing guitar strum sounds.  Pretty pleasantly surprised so far but there's lots more to do in terms of faciliating more dynamics/articulations while still making it easy to dial in specific chords.

Also spending some time creating a suite of convincing-sounding pop/fusion "session band" M8 instruments, like an acoustic-sounding drum kit and a decent P-bass.  Spent a lot of time trying to get them all to sit together nicely and I think this makes a good basis for other songs that wanna use the "band" sound.

This is more an excerpt than anything else this week because i still had relatives visiting from out of town, so i'll file this under Make An Entire Song Out Of Someday.

nice story, you're quite the strum master! hopefully this draft doesn't stay in your backlog too long - I'd say finishing it would only be like 3 points.

This is sick really miss your music and was going though the old SD card I got from you in Tokyo.

Glad you have blessed me with more of your music big_smile

The strum is great, but that lead is AMAZING

nice work with the band-inspired sound design, digging this one, and love that lead too

this is delightful. i wish i could write leads like that. I would listen to much more of this. favorited!

I like this band!

whoa the strumming is so good, is this FM?

yeah definitely down to buy an album of this fusion music, shoutouts to fearofdark and PROTODOME

It certainly doesn't sound it yet, but it does sound really good as its own thing, and the song slaps as well.
