CC1 - Week 7 - Pro Tools

This week we had to make yet another soundscape using Pro Tools. I can safely say that by now I was becoming slightly sick of the prospect of using our paper sounds to make songs, although the provision of a score made the task more interesting, as I was not placing sounds as randomly as before.











For this scape I used many of the techniques such as time stretching and automation effects. I was also quite keen on using the cutting tool to slice my sounds, but i could not work out how to do this, and the computer I was on lacked a Pro Tools reference guide. For the automation effects I made special use of both mute and pan. I found I came up with some interesting effects when I set the drawing tool to random and then muted a long track.

You can here my sound HERE.

Overall I was quite happy with this track and how it turned out. I am also confident that my skills with 'Tools are increasing, and I am gradually getting the knack of all the different functions.
