Soundhouse

Name of Project

Soundhouse

Description

Musical Performance,

As part of the Year 8 Soundhouse project with Mr Cheshire, Year 8 Music students have recorded samples of sounds found in Burwood. These include sounds on the train, at school and even teachers voices. These were looped, some were put into a sampler in order to change the sound. We looked at sample rates and how it relates to the pitch and length of the sound. These were then mixed down to wave files and placed on SDcards to be part of the VA project. All sounds have the same tempo and should relate when played at the same time.
