Compose music in our Palm
If yesterday usábamos the PDA as a guide to the subway and buses, today we see how to turn it into a sequencer to compose our own music.
Microbe is a program for the composition of electronic music. I am fond of this type of music, if only as a listener, I have never composed, and I recognize that I have taken a few hours playing with this program. While we must devote two minutes to learn how it works, it really simple. In short this is a small study music, with just two monocanal synthesizers and a drum of 8 tracks.
Microbe looks spectacular
So read something seems too complicated, but in reality synthesizers are a "score" which is composed a melody, putting the notes and will play in that time. And the drum machine is the same thing but without musical note, we chose that moment are a pat, a drum, and so on. Does not sound so complicated?
The effects give the game a long time to give the final touch
Although you have not touched a programme of musical composition in your life (like me), you would with the dominance of the agenda from the outset. It entretenidísimo go and try to compose the melody as it sounds, adding the base, and so on. In a few minutes we have a composition of quality. And it puts the icing on the effects generator, as distorting, outdated, and so on. You can apply an effect to each tune separately, and a third to the full composition. You just choose what effect to use, apply it to melody, and play with its parameters through some wheels that mimic the controls of a professional sequencer.
The only drawback is that it is a program of payment, but the demo has no time limit, nor disables functionality. Only prevents us export our creations in wav, but we will not have to use problems. Bring a user's manual very well explained, where we learn the four things you need to know to use it, and get down to create our melodies and rhythms. Finally, on page program find packs of sound effects of a free download for use in our compositions, and songs example to learn.
