Project 2: Chop and Transpose

For this project, I kinda wanted it to sound angry haha so i for the into, i used a the Sweeper pad with a little kick drum to it and snook in a simple drum beat the plays throughout the whole song. Then for the main body of the beat, I used the slayer, boobass, and the simple drum beat from the beginning. For the slayer (which is where i used the chop and transpose) i used the same patteren, but in different pitches except for the very end of the slayer loop. For the bass, i made a groovy little beat to go along with it. For a fill, i used a little drum loop to make this interesting. Then finally for the outro, i used the same exact thing i used for the intro, which sounds really cool. Let me know what you think! (: Enjoy

Project 1: Drum Loop

In this loop, i used a series of high hats, claps, snares, toms, tambourines, and kick drums. The original default kick sound was too dull, so i used a channel called Layer to mush two other kicks into the default one to help it sounds better. I used 3 different toms for my fill to take place of the kick drums to make it a little more interesting. In the last pattern, instead of using a constant high hat like i did in the first one, i changed it up and replaced it with the tambourines. This is my first time on FL Studios in about two years, so bear with me here haha. (: I hope you enjoy my loop and let me know what you think!
