Not necessarily. Its the first vertical row of knobs on the step sequencer that controls the "panning" left and right of instruments in your music project. However, you can use the piano roll to increase or decrease the volume of the notes, which they call "velocity". That will be a key word. I gotta head to sleep, so I'm sorry I can't stay up and help you further. I hope this was insightful.
It's the illusion of depth in music: you use the speakers to suggest placement of the instruments. You can also use volume to suggest how far away the instrument is. It can make listening to music more enjoyable. It's something LugiaDialga taught me.
Yes. For every downbeat, that being the second and the fourth beat in common time (4/4 time) add a snare. Wanna take it to the next level? For every downbeat, try adding another snare two 16th notes after the start of every downbeat. Does that help, or would you like me to explain some more?
I just had some green tea, so my throat doesn't hurt as much as before, but colds tend to last for a few days, so I won't be completely back to normal that soon. Thanks for asking though, buddy. :3
I'm doing good ^^ , but I have AP mock exams coming up next week; which are equivalent to my final exams. I might as well enjoy my free time before I need to study hard again <: D
