=== The rhythm ===
With the this song I want to use a much used rhythm this time (see 'EXAMP1'). For the MSX-MUSIC, press [F8] (FM Drum menu). Set the correct drums with the desired frequencies and volumes. With this rhythm it is better to put set the hi-hats and cymbals soft and the bass drum and snared rum snare drum hard; the hi-hats and cymbals are the underside support of the bass and snared rumssnare drums. For MSX-AUDIO there is the Sampler menu ([F3]). Here the required samples can be loaded onto each sample lock block (or, if this already exists, a sample kit). Finally, set the correct tempo ([CTRL] - [T |]) and optionally set the MSX-MUSIC channels to 6 (use fm-drums + PSG) or 9 (use only PSG drums).
=== The bassline ===
Since the rhythm of the exampleong example song is rather slow, we also make the bassline slowly. If necessary, use a second channel to emphasize certain notes. Select the correct instrument with [F4] (voice menu). This song has a quiet and short bass, for example the Slapbass 3. A second (softer) bass provides the emphasis. Set the start voice well and the bass line is ready for use (see, 'EXAMP2'). For greater emphasis, the detune can also be set ([F10]) at the second channel.
=== Accompaniment ===
The accompaniment of a song can be given a fuller sound with violins, movements, trumpets or any other instru- ment instrument that lasts for a long time lingers (legato instrument) for the accompanimentwill give a song a fuller sound. To be short-winded we choose fast support with violins. Select it again with the [F4] key. Pay attention to the starting instruments! See * 'EXAMP3 \ 39'.
=== The Lead ===
The lead is the importance of the song. Without the lead, a song is not complete and (usually) boring. So make sure there is a varied lead so that the song remains interesting (see 'EXAMP4'). So choose the right instruments again with the [F4] key and course of course set the starting instruments.
=== Finishing ===
Now that the song is almost ready, some nice effects can be added with the pitch bend or the modulation option. If you have the stereo option, you can now search for the most beautiful stereo settings. Before we finally save the song is finally saved on disk, we must of course give it a name. This can be done with [CTRL] + [N]. Please note that we now have to write the song in USER mode if we still want to use it in our own programs.
=== Tut slot Finally ===
Of course it is not possible to make such a one-two-three a good song, and as the saying goes: Practice makes perfect. Of course it is a bit hard to use such cliches, but it is true. Take the time and keep the button overview at hand. Most CTRL codes are kept as logical as possible, which makes remembering a lot easier. Finally, I want to wish you a lot of success with the use of MoonBlaster.
