Friday, September 19: passing in work, and saving your theme song as a sound file

OK, before we get into today's festivities, I would like to make a solemn warning: I am STILL missing files from many of you. This will have a huge impact on your future grade, and as such, I will feel compelled to inform all interested parties, including your parents, your guidance counselor, etc etc. You know who you are, and if you're not sure, check out the folders I've set up at Box.net. If you are STILL not sure, you will have some time later on this class to ask me.

But first, let's do something NEW

Up until now, you've been gathering sounds, creating session files, laying loops down into tracks, and selecting parts of these loops to make new sounds. Many of you have been making clever and creative noises; I should know, I've listening to them! Now, for the first time, I will want you to create a new sound file from your ENTIRE SESSION FILE. This new sound will include all the sounds you've been using in your session, merged into one single file.

Here is how you do it:

A) Open your session file

B) Click the File command

C) goto EXPORT, then Audio Mix Down

D) Save your file as a "wav" type file, or as an mp3

E) Please send it to me by email attachment


Cheers,
Mr. L
