Loop-based Music Composition With Linux, Pt. 2 (Linux Journal)
[Posted October 1, 2007 by jake]
In this Linux Journal article, Dave Phillips completes his
look at using Linux
for loop-based composition. He looks at Ardour, Reaper, and Audacity
to create and edit music from sampled sources. "
Drummers are pattern-playing creatures, but to keep things
interesting they vary those patterns from time to time. We can liven up our
example by replacing every fourth loop with a variation of the groove or a
fill taken from the same source loop collection. Simply load the new set of
audio files as new tracks, edit as desired, then mix and match until you
find the right combination of patterns (i.e. what pleases your ears)."
