Welcome to Music Technology!
And so a new trimester begins. I have worked out the hitches and tech glitches in the Mac lab, and we are off to a running start! Last week students worked on a project with an aim toward becoming familiar with the GarageBand interface, distinguishing between the green loops (also called software loops, or sound regions), and the blue loops (real instruments recorded by actual musicians). If you think you’d like to mix your own beats to create an original composition; record your voice rapping or even singing along to an original piece; make a podcast to be uploaded to the web; create a musical score to accompany a movie; and add Foley (sound effects) to a short film, then Room 400 is the place for you at Milwood Magnet School: A Center for Math, Science, and Technology.
