For Assignment #3, which required making a one-minute song in reason, I chose to do one in the House genre. The song itself contains two distinct parts, which are structured somewhat similarly. In the first part, the song opens with a drum beat which has undergone a filter sweep via automation. I configured the MIDI controller so as to be able to bypass the filter unit once the sweep had been completed. Following the introduction of the drums, the song adds a bass line and piano chord progression with reverb, and finally a melodic synth line which is routed through a phaser.
In the second part of the song, the drums change abruptly into a kick-heavy pattern, which after several measures adds hand claps. Additionally, two similar melodic lines constructed on the Malstrom synth, using the patch titled "Malpeggiator," which provides a modified arpeggiator effect come in. On top of this, a synth pad is also introduced, by means of a filter sweep done via automation.
