Harmonic Rhythm in Seed:Loops

13 August 2022 by Brian Hearn music, apps, seedloops

Introduction This week I released an update to Seed:Loops . Along with a number of usability, stability, and bug fixes I introduced two new features to the chord loops page. Number of chords The first feature gives you the ability to adjust the number of chords. Previously the generated four chords each lasted one bar and this was the only option available. This is a good starting point but didn’t give you too much flexibility.

Layering loops in Seed:Loops

Introduction Music is made up of many “layers”. You have melodies, basslines, chord progressions etc. Together these compliment each other to make your music sound nice. If too many layers are playing at the same time in the same space it can sound crowded or “muddy”. The principle behind my free music making app Seed:Loops is that it generates these layers for you in the form of loops. You can then adjust these loops to separate them if you think it’s too busy.
