For this assignment I used the songs " Safe and Sound " " I Knew You Were Trouble " "Begin Again" by Taylor Swift. While recording this assignment I had to use everything I knew in order for it to come out good. I used the tools in this order because I thought it would sound interesting. While using the EQ knobs I first turned up the high then I turned off the mid and turned up the low. Then I turned off the high. Some of the difficulties I faced was deciding when to use each tool.

Mixxx Assignment 9: Sampling


The song I used for this assignment was " One more night " by Maroon 5. I decide to put some noises like rain, thunder, crickets and gun shots. I decided to put all this because i was imagining a man inside his car listening to music on a rainy day outside and then the music stops and he gets shot. I learned that you can make the sound louder than the song if you want to.
