5. Synthesis
Create imaginative synthesized version of your Notation project in Logic Pro.
Go through the synthesis tutorials:
Audio SynthesisRequirements
software = Logic Pro
get your Notation project into Logic Pro
open your Notaiton project in Dorico ... then = File > Export > MIDI
in Logic = File > Import > MIDI File ...
each instrument from your Notation project will get its own track
MusicXML will not give you the human performance dynamics that are embedded in MIDI by Dorico
use the following techniques to create an imagitive/fun version of your Notation project using virtual instruments:
change the default virtual instruments Logic chooses for you
use automation (at very least automate panning or volume)
for at least one of your virtual instruments, use an analog synthesizer imulator so you can mess with an LFO modulation (tremelo, vibrato) and be able to choose what oscillator is used
add creative "Audio FX" in the virtual instrument track (such as reverb, distortion, etc.)
where to turn in
first, you must create a video out of your audio (YouTube does not accept audio only)
use DaVinci Resolve to add a photo to your audio (make sure you use a royalty free image)
upload the video you create in Resolve to YouTube (make sure it is public; it may be unlisted)
embed in your class projects portfolio website
