Summary
In this chapter, we started with how to come up with creative sound effects by using glitch effects with Gross Beat. Glitch effects are an excellent way to create variation when transitioning between one section of a song and the next or simply to add interesting rhythmic sequences.
We learned how to create our own instruments from samples using DirectWave. Finally, we learned how to create our own instrument and effect chains with Patcher. We learned about various presets available in Patcher. And we learned about creating arpeggiating MIDI sequences using VFX Sequencer in Patcher.
In the next chapter, we will learn about intermediate mixing topics and sound design plugin effects.
