I like it! It's a good start! Adding an intro would really help, just start of with only one layer of the beat present, I often just start with the lead, but whatever sounds good to you is correct! Then, in the drop, I think some soft drums would add to the groove.
The melody is there, so refine it a bit and it'll be very, very good!
exotic sparrow
hey, i appreciate the feedback
im glad you like it too!
so you think i should take the melody and add it to the to the beginning alone to create an intro kinda?
lyric zenith
Yeah yeah! Just have the melody at the start, with maybe some effects, transitions, etc... to build up to the main part of the song and eventually the drop!
exotic sparrow
okay i just did that
i still have no idea how to introduce the melody and transition into the section with the "chorus" i guess

Gave +1 Rep to @worldly adder (current: #175 - 1)
exotic sparrow
@lyric zenith i added the melody alone kinda

worldly adder
personnaly i finish that

A way to make this easier is: in the pattern list (on the left of the playlist), right click on Pattern 1 and click on 'Split by channel', this will put all of your instruments in different patterns and make it easier for you to arrange. I do this with drums and melodies when I get to the arranging stage.
exotic sparrow
okay im doing that rn
im SCARED
how do i regroup them again if i want to later
did this
im just scared ill get confused later and lose track of what im doing/lose the work
lyric zenith
Yeah sooo, I haven't quite found that out, that's why I first do the loop and then arrange the beat

it's helpful to save all the time
exotic sparrow
thats true actually
that way i wont have to duplicate or copy over parts of the beat
instead they are all separeted already and i can just move them however i want
just like how you said i should keep the melody separate for the first section
lyric zenith
and, in the top left, when you click on file, you can save as new version, that'll make a duplicate of the file and automatically put you in the new version

oh so that way if something ever goes wrong i can just go back to the original?
lyric zenith
Yup! you got it!
exotic sparrow
i dont wanna keep bothering you but can i add you and maybe get some more advice from you later? id really appreciate it
lyric zenith
Sure I'm down, but I'm gonna have to dip in a bit. I have exams which I need to study for, but feel free to dm me for help!
exotic sparrow
