On today's quiz we are going to make an 8 step melody, 16 step melody, or 32 step melody.
- Make sure you have a Mixer 14:2
- Set Tempo to anything between 70-110 bpm
- Create a Malstrom or a Combinator.
- Click on the folder of whatever instrument you choose.
- Go to Reason Factory Sound Bank: Malstrom Patches: Mono Synths: Choose any sound. If you picked the Combinator, go to Reason Factory Sound Bank: Combinator Patches: Synth Poly: Choose any sound.
- Create a Matrix!
- On the Matrix, set your steps to either 8, 16, or 32.
- You may want to change the Matrix from Octave 3 to Octave 4, or maybe down to Octave 2.
- Now turn the volume off on three of the steps if your steps are 8. Turn the volume off 6 notes if your steps are 16. Turn your volume off 12 notes if your steps are 32.
- Create your melody, then copy it to track using these steps:
- Move your Right loop point to R3.
- Right Click on the Matrix and select Copy Pattern To Track.
- Move the Right loop point to R5 and the Left loop point to L3.
- On the Matrix, Select Pattern 2.
- Move the Octave Switch up one Octave from the one you are on.
- Create the EXACT SAME MELODY FROM PATTERN 1, BUT MAKE SURE THIS MELODY IS ONE OCTAVE HIGHER THAN PATTERN 1!
- Copy pattern 2 to track. Make sure that L is at 3 and R is at 5.
- Move the Left loop point to L1.
- Click the Pattern Button on the Matrix.
- Create a Redrum and make a 16 OR 32 step drum pattern using a Clap or Snap, Bass Drum, Hi Hat, and Percussion. Make sure you put the sounds on appropriate boxes!
- On the Redrum, Copy Pattern To Track and turn the Pattern Button off.
- Create a Dr. Rex.
- Load in a Dr. Rex Percussion Loop of your choice.
- Push the "To Track" button on the Dr. Rex.
- Save your beat as (YOUR NAME) MATRIX QUIZ.
