#samplemap

Here are some examples of the samples I have created for my sample map. The map consists of many different samples that vary between gestural and textural sounds. I have made sure that there are both gestural and textural sounds as I am aiming to have some control over the structure. The random number generator will randomly determine which samples will be played, where the structure is more likely to be randomly determined by myself. 

Above is a screenshot of the sample map edit window. I have labelled each sound so that they are organised by such characteristics of gestural, textural, higher pitch, lower pitch, ‘attack release’ and ‘gradual continuent’. This will help me to perform and record the piece when using the random number generator. 

I have come to a decision that my 3rd composition for my project will fit into the category of electronic music due to the fact that it gives me a wider diversity between my 3 indeterminate compositions. 

I am confident that this composition will make use of a random number generator, in which numbers will determine such rules as the pieces’ tempo. The idea is to use random numbers to determine the order in which associate samples are played through a sample map that I have made from my own electronically produced sounds. Much like my orchestral composition (1st composition), this piece will be composed in a similar fashion, where each electronic sound (note) is associated with a specific number (card) and then played correspondingly to the previous selected sound (note).
