If other creators learn a few things from me, I’m glad. A last message to the creators and listeners who watch Hatsune Miku’s Google+?Ī.
MELODYNE EDITOR 2 IS GARBAGE HOW TO
Also, I’m studying more musical theory and how to add brass instruments to my songs, since I think that’d be nice. I just want to make songs that can resound in the listener’s heart for that moment. I’m always thinking about this, but I’m okay with not making a famous song that goes down in history, and I’m okay with being forgotten someday. Tell us any songs you’d like to make in the future, or any other plans.Ī. Also, I use the accordion samples that come with Logic, “Session String Pro” for strings… I basically just choose samples by the instrument. I always use “BFD2.0” for drums, and “Ivory 2” for piano when there’s a piano part. Are there any samples you always use in your music? And how do you use them?Ī. In fact, it’s not just piano - I do my arrangement in general by playing it back and thinking that such and such sound would be cool. I don’t actually play the piano, so I just think “Man, it’d be cool if it sounded like this,” and I search for it on my keyboard to put it in the song. One characteristic of the Scop sound is diverse piano parts. So I make songs with those feelings to both be a mouthpiece for them, and because I want others to understand me, too. As for sympathy, all people have inner feelings they want others to understand. Most of my lyrics are just an extension of that. I’ve made stories in my head for a long time, and got in a habit of expanding on my daydreams. Where do the ideas for these originate from?Ī.
MELODYNE EDITOR 2 IS GARBAGE SOFTWARE
In my case, I do most of the tuning in in a pitch-editing software called Melodyne. The only one I mess with mid-song is “DYN.” Then I make the VEL on each note really big. Tell us your preferred Vocaloid settings.Ī. I’m also kind of glad when listeners recognize “Scop’s Miku voice.” But I also feel like she can handle the widest range of genres, so I have Miku sing unless it’s to the point where she just doesn’t fit the song at all. I’m most used to her, so she’s easiest to use. Is there a reason you continue to have Miku as your main Vocaloid?Ī. Most of the songs you post use Hatsune Miku. Hatsune Miku, Hatsune Miku Append, Megpoid, Kagamine Rin/Len, and Megurine Luka. I studied how to arrange by listening to off-vocals, too.Ī. I starting using Vocaloid at the same time as digital music, and I listened to supercell’s songs for reference often, since they were central to Vocaloid at the time. I like bands with pretty melodies, so I think I’m influenced in that area.
I usually listen to emo and post-rock bands. Are there any musicians that influenced you?Ī. Sometimes it depends on what I feel like, and if I suddenly think of something, I make sure to act on it as soon as possible. So today I’ll do the lyrics for this song, and record the guitar for this other song. After that, it varies a lot, but I find it best to have multiple songs progressing at the same time. I start out playing the guitar and trying to hum a melody, or if I have an idea for the melody, I get the basic tune in there. How do things generally go when you’re composing?Ī. Since I had barely any competence with computers or music theory at that point, I read a lot of books focused on the absolute basics of digital music. Basing it on what I did in my band, I started in digital music thinking I should try to do it on my own. In what way did you learn music (and composition)?Ī. I liked band music and longed to be in one around high school, and I got the chance to start a band with my club in college. Tell us how you got into creating music.Ī. With Scop continuing to produce popular songs in this style, we asked about his creative process. Making Songs That Resound In Their Hearts For That MomentĪ straight rock sound with impressive piano parts mixed in, and Miku singing along with lyrics that have evoked sympathy from so many.
