Hey there! Welcome to the bottom of the description! - เพลง
I was always hesitant about starting to use a DAW since I only play saxophone and a little piano. I was under the impression you had to be really good at a chordal instrument to use DAWs effectively but I guess I was wrong lol.
This is so helpful! Thank you so much 🙏🏼
You are really helping a lot
Good job
Wow great! Thanks so much!
This is incredibly useful, I want to make simple loops for my visual novels and this method is absolutely perfect for that. Thank you
this is amazingly helpful!
I'm so glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU!!
Thanks so much for this video! I’m gonna try my hardest to write a song and maybe a ep or album.
This so helpful
10:38 I don’t know why but sometimes it won’t let me change the sound
Thanks, what daw is that and is all plugin with our you bought them?
It's a website called soundtrap.com. No downloads or plugins!
Okay, so here’s the bass line I asked about in a ridiculously long comment on another video off yours. Now I get to experiment with that and the melody separated from the other tracks.
One question… Is mp3 the only way to save the track? Can you save it as one but separate tracks/files within? An mp3 isn’t all that useful if you’re wanting to go further with the song
Thanks so much. I’m super glad I found your channel!
Hi Amy! So glad you enjoyed the videos! The paid version allows you to download MIDI files of the individual tracks, but I think the free version only allows you to do MP3 or WAV files of the whole project.
@@AprilKeez awesome. Thank you!!
What was the apps you used in this video?
I used Chrome Music Lab's Song Maker and Soundtrap. Here are the links:

Love it!
im working on a game and i needed to get my song sounding good but i cant
Can you do ballad songs by using this one?
Totally! The acoustic guitar sounds kind of icky on the free version of Soundtrap, but the piano is nice and there are some good, soft synth sounds!
@@AprilKeez thank you!!
I can play piano but I can’t compose tunes even if I have one in mind to my lyrics! Lol
