{BLOG} Introducing The Tools
by DwAN
You must be wondering (no?), how do I made my own music? Frankly, I have zero expertise in playing music instruments. How ever, I can play very simple note on keyboard, and without proper key or even chord.
This is how LMMS (Linux Multimedia System) comes handy. LMMS is a tools for creating music, it have piano roll, loop track, sound font support , etc etc. You might never heard this apps, but basically it have the same feature like any other music creation apps such as fruityloop and GarageBand, but it comes free of charge. The catch is, you had to install it on Linux (or windows, but it will crash a lot), hence the name it self.
What do I do in this apps? Basically, I put simple note in it and I loop it, and then I put simple drum beat in it and I loop it, and so on and so on. Somehow, magically, it transforms into full band music, although the sound is a little bit electronic.
Beside LMMS, the hero of my music is an apps called ZynAddSubFx that basically the basic sounds of my music and also a collection of sound loop in a format called soundfont. That’s all, as simple as that.
