    This is probably the best "make songs not loops" video that I've seen so far. It's all laid out step by step, well described (except for transitions lol), cohesive, fun, and gives a really good look into your personal take on music. Not to mention: it sounds great. Sarah's out here cooking up some knowledge! I'll never forget that "spread the ingredients out" analogy. I'm gonna go make a cake!

    I'm definitely going to take your maschine course once I've saved up enough money to get myself one.
    Whilst I'm fortunate enough to be able to study music, my degree unfortunately doesn't teach anything that's music production related and all the knowledge that I've managed to get on Logic Pro is genuinely because of you so thank you for the vids and for being such an awesome person!
    Stay safe!

    Great video! Can you explain more about transitions? Do you take things away or change the loop up (like a break for example)? Cheers 🎧

    • @Sarah2ill
      @Sarah2ill  4 роки тому +1

      Yes. Just take things away. Or add things You can drop a sound effect right before the change up. Removing drums or samples before the next 4 bars. It’s really up to you.

  • @terminalva
    @terminalva 4 роки тому

    I'm maybe 1.5 years into incorporating sampling in my music. Would it be beneficial to chop loops or would it be better to just build a track off of a loop? I've been doing original chords for so long (not formally trained but I do some playing keys), it's hard for me sometimes to time my ear to sampling and loops.
