Wave Sequencing In Your DAW | Make Music | Math Music

In this video I just illustrate a concept to use one sample or instrument note, placed around a beat apart until a full few measures is complete to create a musical sequence. This musical sequence could also be considered a "wave sequence" because the sound produced ultimately is a waveform. This style of sequencing requires no real musical motif or knowledge of its development. You are basically just "coding" music into through the use of these short sounds. You can create some very interesting listening experiences using this idea and perhaps more interesting, random and creative than if you thought through the sound creation process. When you mix all these different sounds, you produce a subtle rhythm and melody potentially. From this sound you have something like an underscore. From there you could produce more derivative content on top of this to provide a more human scale of understanding to the overall music.

Some additional ways to manipulate these sounds to extend on this idea include:
• Using a similar sound with different effects on each passing note
• Using the same sounds with different starting positions for the sounds as the overall loop of sounds cycles, so you can create an endless loop experience
• Using the power of sonic contract in timbre and texture to make more dynamic sound design
• Adjusting how the panning works to make the pan seem rhythmic
• Utilization of pitch to create more interesting and unusual melodies
• Using rhythmic accents in odd places to give the expanded rhythm a unique feel
• Stacking all content under one channel to an give interwoven feel to all the sounds
• Use overlapping of sounds (like pads and reverb) for further weaving of textures
• Change the length of the samples in rhythmic ways so when the entire arrangement is performed additional spatial accents or dents make the groove more animated / random
• Leave a space in some beats to effect the whole of the groove
• Try mixing different BPM elements as the single shot sound, extend to 2 beats to make more dramatic effect

In the method of creation you are using math and shape but not the human touch. The human touch amount is up to you based on the results of what you combine or how you choose to direct your source instruments. Additional human touch is introduced as you find a home for this mixture in your songs. From that point you decide who wears the motif, the mixture or your song. Thereby creating another path into song craft.
