Here's a simple description of my project: The media player is loading...
My final project for digital sound will encompass the processing of many recorded sounds into a "Stomp"-like piece. The goal for my project is to create an aurally appealing song using nothing but natural sounds found around campus and the audio processing tools used in Ableton. I will start off by taking a video recording of me creating sounds. Then, I will extract the audio from the videos using an online converter and import it into Audacity for easy editing. From there, I will export very small samples of the sound and import it into Ableton where I will assign each sample to a midi pitch value, essentially creating my own new midi instrument. However, there is still a need for melody, so I will take the sample of the beep created by an ID card when opening a door and transpose it in Audacity multiple times to create multiple different pitched sounds. These sounds are not tuned, however they are in tune relatively, so the ear doesn't care. These will then be brought into Audacity much like the other sounds and a second instrument will be created. Then, I can easily work with them in Ableton to create a piece "from scratch." So, after creating the sound for this project, I will add the video clips of me hitting things on top of the sound and my final project will be delivered via a video. This project encompasses most of what I've learned this year and I hope that people enjoy hearing/watching my work.
