Ok, so after a few days of working together in the lab with my two partners, here are our ideas so far, and our plan going forward:
Sampler:
Logan and i both separately had the idea to use a ukulele as the basic instrument from which we would collect samples, so we agreed to go with that. I offered to bring my uke in one weekend to record samples, however i won't have time to do that until next weekend, so for now that project is on hold. Once i have the samples, either i or one of the other two will work on adding effects and loading the final samples into NNXT. My personal idea as far as adding effects is that adding a sort of echo, as if the ukulele were being played through a tube could sound pretty interesting, although simply creating a very authentic ukulele sampler would also be nice, since there is none currently in the NNXT sample banks.
Logan and Stephen are going to focus on the synthesizer, and i will mostly just give ideas and feedback about what we might do on that front.
Once both of our instruments have reached a decent amount of completeness, i plan to compose a short piece of music using the two instruments in Finale, then transporting it into Sonar to create a final product.
That is our basic plan going forward. I will sample the ukulele and help with effects, and compose a piece using our final two instruments. I will probably end up being a good bit more hands on than that with the other parts of the process, but those are my two responsibilities.
