- If you are brand new to digital music and RapidComposer I hope this video helps you to have a good 1st experience with the program. Some of the info is repeated in my other videos but I think this video will help absolute beginners more.

Nice of you to organize the first steps for new RapidComposer users like myself.
The developer should be grateful, and I am sure he is.
I look forward to more videos to help me create interesting songs with a good workflow.
I agree 100%
Man This was the Video NEEDED.. Thanks Buddy..How Come RC People Did not realize this.. Before this video all the i had was scattered Knowledge and was too Confusing and was not syncing properly.. Had no road map..
I have downloaded this DEMO version and Promised Myself hat i will only buy if get a proper hang of it ... I THINK I AM GETTING THERE.. THANKS A TON
Ditto!
Thank you. As you mentioned, this program can be quite frustrating, and this video answered a lot of my questions. I just wanted to use Rapid Composer to create some simple drones and progressions to make my guitar practice a little more enjoyable. I was on the point of just giving up, but having watched this video I am now quite confident I will be able to do the things that I have been wanting to do.
Great vid. I made those Templates years ago. Haven't actively worked with the program in a while, but it's nice to see my work being appreciated!
Nicely done. This program has needed fine tutorials like this for a long time.👍
You are a god send...this is a serious tool in the right hands!
Thank you so much for making these videos. I hope the developers of RC give you some thanks as well. Videos like these make me want to explore the software even further, rather than just put aside for a tool I'm more familiar with.
I'm hitting that 'Thanks!' button . . . . again! So helpful!
Peter thank you!
Excellent! Thanks so much for creating this intro to the software
These basic tutorials are absolutely essential for RapidComposer. It's a great composition tool but it totally overwhelms you at first. It's so easy to start fumbling your way through, not really knowing what you're doing then end up getting confused, frustrated and just not bother with the program again. This must be my fourth or fifth revisit to RapidComposer in an attempt to get a better handle on it.
Extremely useful beginners' video. I already watched several of your other videos but it is very good to have this as a basic starting point. Thanks!
Now, that´s what i call an inspiring tutorial! Thank you for not playing endless pling-plongs from the pianoroll with "grand piano 1"
Is there a video that follows it?
Really enjoying your tutorials, learning a lot, thanks very much, looking forward to seeing what's to come in this series.
Thanks again for these videos showing more about Rapid Composer... It looks like this is on my list of purchases for sure. Keep making more of these as they're great reference material.
I keep watching this video, such a beautiful way of illustration
keep on the creativity
Thanks for this video on the updates. JUST GOT it. This program is like no other , REALLY a game changer Love your video
Great video series , learning the program like this makes using it a pleasure not a minefield , Thankyou Steve
I LOVE that you're covering this.
Admittedly, it would have been SUPER GREAT if you'd zoomed into the window with RC4 in it for easier viewability. :-)
Please continue your incredible work.
An excellent tutorial. I'm still on the demo of RC, but intend to purchase. I learned so many important steps while watching. Thank you!
Excellent! Thank you.
Great video!!! Thank you very much!
Thank You for the video
Hey there, Ai Rapid Composer v5.1.4 is out ....
Yes! Echoing @Md Ahmad comment. This small beginning video series really unlocking beginner phobia/fear diving deeper. Really appreciate all your thoughts and planning of these videos for RapidComposer.
Thank you so much. A step at a time is my speed.
Really waiting for your tuto about RC 😃
P.S. I have glued the different phrases together to what should be a single phrase, but that does not work either.
Thank you :)
Are these templates ones that you've created? Are there free sources for download?
I can't get the rythms in the rythm tab like you. For me it's empty.
Thx for this series, cause I am just looking into Melodya to create melodies. Will it work together with Scaler where I create chord progressions? Or should I buy RapidComposer instead of Melodya alone?
Hi Adrian, Thanks for your comments. Its always difficult suggesting what a person should buy as everyone is so different and have different needs. Scaler is a no brainer as its cheap and can do so many things. Rapid composer is different as its more expensive and many find it hard to master, but for the person who can dig deep for above average results Rapidcomposer can be a true gem! Rapid composer and scaler can work great together as both can import chord progressions from each other.
Thanks for the video. Do you know the difference between different versions? They vary ALOT in price, and I really can't find anything on their website....
I really do not know the differences, maybe someone here can help
I am still racking my brain trying to figure out how you can make of the different phrases a single phrase so that you can apply changes to all of them all at once, as you do in this video and in another one. Every time I try it I'm given an error message saying multiple phrases selected, disallowing me to make changes the way you do here. Can you perhaps just do a quick 30 second video to show how you do it, because I have no clue whatsoever!
Yeah I don't know if it's from an update or a setting but I have to figure that out too
Hey I am UNABLE TO UNGLUE THE SEQUENCE ONCE I GLUE IT...
.. how to do it can you cover it in next video..
try the undo button, you can also manually split it by hover mouse over the phrase and alt left mouse click. alt left mouse click again to reglue. you can also divide parts and chords by doing the same over the chords or part bars.
Hi!!!
In which order should we view your Rapid Composer videos?
quality of life settings, start here, piano experiment, strings harmony & rts
@@41Fingers Thank you SOOO very much!
I'm following allowing and am on "Start Here".
I'm a little stuck on a couple of areas:
1.) Naming tracks at @21:35 does not show track name to edit. Only an instrument.
2.) The chords on master track are only showing 3 (not four). The first 2 are 8 beats. The third one is 16. It's really weird.
I'm assuming that I changed a setting accidentally before you provided this amazing guide. But I can't imaging what it may be.
Please advise, good sir.
@@sekritskworl-sekrit_studios Yeah I don't think you can name the master track or voicing track. Adding a harmony will depending on the settings add chords and notes to a phrase.
@@41Fingers I'm looking forward to the harmony portion.
I believe that this has been the most impactful of your series for me to date.
If you're on twitter & wanna share your screenname, I'll post & tag you.
@@sekritskworl-sekrit_studios Hey thanks for that kind offer but I really have all I can handle just on youtube
Do you think its better than captain chords, orb producer and instacomposer?
It depends what you mean with "better". I own all four of them and they all have their advantages and disadvantages. With rapid composer you can compose whole songs with intro, verse, refrain, bridge and outro. Thats not possible or at least not that easy with the other tools. Therefore the other tools are much easier to use. Its somehow like comparing a fotofilter-app with a program like photoshop. Both can produce satisfying results, but the learning curves are very different. If you just want to generate some chords, baselines or arps orb producer or instacomposer might be the better solution. If you want a tool for more advanced and complex compositions and if you are willing to work yourself into a more complicated program, then rapid composer might be the better choice.
@@schniggedagges74 ok great, is it a AI tool as well that generates melody, baseline, and beats?
@@vcodev108 They are all AI based generators. As for melodies I like Orb more than Captains or instacomposer, but rapid composer is on another level. It gives you much more options but on the other hand it is not that intuitive. For drums there are much better options like easy drummer or moto drummer
@@schniggedagges74 so that mean rapid composer is not an AI based tool?
@@vcodev108 Of course it is, but a more complex one. It is not as easy to handle as the other ones. You have much more options, but you need to know where and how to use them. The other tools are more straight foreward. There is one UI with some parameters to play with and thats it. Rapid composer has lots and lots of funktions hidden in several different menus. So it is not that intuitive. You need to know exactly what you want to do and where to look up for that funktion. The manual is a pdf with 188 pages...
Thanks for these great videos , very helpful, I`m new to this programme, and I seem to have touched a button, and have lost the generators at the right hand side of the programme. I`ve watched as many of your videos as I can find, but I cant find a way to find them or re-set the programme to default, if you have covered this could you point me in the right direction. Thanks again
I just solved the problem, I must have dragged the end of the progression section over to the right side, almost off the screen, luckily I saw the blue line at the edge of the screen, and when I put the curser on it I could drag it back into position.
I hope this might help someone else.
you need more zoom because the image not' clean
Sooo much talking and no play etc... you should let play sometimes between your talks.
