Music Lesson: Ultrabeat and Drum Machine Designer

Okay, so we've looked at Ultrabeat. We've looked at the virtual drummer and seen all the possibilities in both.

Ultrabeat Overview

Ultrabeat is something I use quite a lot within projects that I work with. I use a sequencer, the step sequencer, to modulate sound sources.

As we've covered in the course, you've seen how that's done. It really gives movement; it creates modulation and movement within a track and takes away from the static nature of electronic beats. It gives it a bit more life.

Today's Challenge

The challenge for today is to:

• Create and sketch out an arrangement using the Drum Machine Designer.
• Add some multi outputs.
• Use it as a multi-output instrument.

So, ensure you have all your auxes and all your sound sources controllable via the auxes.

Get Creative!

Yeah, get crazy with it!
