10 Midi - Intro to Advanced Songwriter
How to begin your Advanced Songwriter Assignment:
1. Open
GarageBand à single click on “Empty” project.
2. In the bottom
right-hand corner, click on the word DETAILS.
3. Change the following in the settings:
a. Key Signature
– A minor
b. Time signature
– 3/4 Time
4. Select
“Choose” to open the file.
5. Set up your arrangement track to match the picture below. If you want, you may also add a 4-bar "interlude" between "Pre-made" and "CYO" (stands for Choose Your Own) sections.
6. Open the Advanced Songwriter assignment page. Read through the "New Concepts" section. I will be teaching you about inversions and arpeggios next class, so skip over them for now.
7. Record the pre-made melody as written. Put it in the "Pre-Made" section (see picture below).
8. If there is still time, go to onlinedrummer.com and begin researching 3/4 time drum beats.
