Hi
With the constant need to improve, I have been thinking about how I should best fit sounds into the spectrum, and whether I can make life easier by trying to plan things out better.
My current workflow, seems to be centred around designing/writing a bassline, then finding a nice break to go with it, and then starting to decide how to build my drums. I usually hit a block at this point.
Looking for some inpiration on some sound design elements, and think some effective planning could help. I think some time spent just sampling ideas, creating instruments, formulating breaks randomly, with no actual goal of song writing, could help me to get some creativeness flowing, rather than just loop monging
ANyone have any interesting ideas, on how to approach some of these concepts? Whats your sound design process? Do you do extensive sampling of stuff you do? Do you separate sound desin from tune writing?
Watched a vid with Inside Info adn Smooth making a tune, and they were just banging through a library of sounds, and throwing stuff into the mix, was quite a sparse vid, but quite interesting nonetheless.
Anyone got anyting to add/advise?
Cheers fellas
