How to create a track »

The best way to create a track is to add drum instruments to the Beat and Bassline Editor and instruments for melody tracks into the Song Editor.

Next, you can create different drum loops using the Add bassline button in the Beat and Bassline Editor for each new sound you want - a main bass line, a hihat line, special rhythms and breaks, etc.

For melody tracks, click the “add track” button in the song editor. Create a new segment by clicking on the timeline. Next, double-click that segment to open the Piano Roll Editor. Place notes in the piano roll by clicking where you want them to occur using the pencil tool. You drag notes up and down the scale, forward and backwards in time, etc. to get it sounding right.

Another way to create a melody is to press the ‘record’ button in the Piano Roll Editor and play notes in real time, either on the keyboard (Z = C, S = C#, X = D, Q = C, etc) or on a MIDI keyboard.

Finally hit ‘play’ and enjoy your music!
