My synth sound
For this project I had to make up a synth sound of my own, and this is what I ended up with. Working from the default synth in Sytrus I first changed the WAV thing into a SAW wav then I modded the volume and pitch envelopes to get that gradual rise in the strength of the note and the little swoop in the pitch, then I added in some delays and effects like chorus into the mix, but not too over bearing then finally I wanted to mess with some of the filter settings so I went into the main FL Studio mixer and selected the Bass, treble, and midrange dials and created automation clips for all of them, then I went and messed around with them a bit in the playlist, I thought it added a nice subtle change to the song, I was thinking something along the lines of the synth that does the solo in "The Hand that feeds"- NIN, its not exact but his does a little pitch shifting and weird stuff is more fuzzy over all than mine is. Hope you like the little ditty

New Drum Pattern
This is the new drum pattern that I worked on on thrusday (Today) its not quite finished, I still need to add some fills and make up some new beats to finish up the song but this is the main Idea for it, its supposed to be played at 75 BPM but for some reason FL studios keeps on putting it up to 110 BPM.

Floating Away
This is a song that My uncle and I wrote last saturday afternoon, we were sitting in his studio and I decided to noodle around in Drop-D becuase I hadn't done that in quite awhile so I tuned his guitar down and the main riff just came to me then followed the bridge and chorus chords, the lead guitar isnt finished yet I'm planning to change that around some and then we should have a final version up hopefully next weekend.

Defunkt's First Post
Yoooo my names Defunk't the monk, and I just started this blog so I can post whatever music stuff I make along the way. I've been doing a little bit of recording here and there with my band and my uncle at his studio and now Im gonna be mixing some beats here at school in their studio using Fruity Loops, but at home I use Audacity with the ghettoest mic I could get (A rock band one haha) but hey it works right? I've used garageband some at my uncles house using the midi keyboard for some basslines to my guitar but that was only once. I'ma start posting here pretty soon tho so check back quick. peace.
