Remixing
Project #12: Remixing ~ Final Project
Directions:
Using the provided audio stems of “Owner of a Lonely Heart", create a 24-32 bar Remix Project using a section(s) of the song.
1) Spend time listening to the entire song, soloing each track, and label moments with Markers.
2) After listening to each instrument and figuring out the role each of them play in the music, decide which section/region you want to remix and trim the tracks to select those regions.
3) Experiment recording additional tracks & adding plug-ins to existing tracks. Use your imagination!
