Magix Music Maker 2017 Premium - Absolute Beginner's Tutorial - Part 6 - Creating your own Objects Video Lecture | Magix Music: A Comprehensive Tutorial for Beginners - Video & Sound Editing

hi everyone in this video I want to
demonstrate how you can produce your own
sound loop or object in MAGIX Music
Maker premium 2017 and what I'm going to
do is produce a simple drum beat when
you start magic it normally present you
with this usual screen of the tracks on
the left here the samples down the right
and the loops just to the right of that
and the instrument but what I'm going to
do is click on edit and at the top here
there's an option to create new MIDI
object if that option isn't available
scroll down to object create new object
create new MIDI object and what I want
to do is to produce an empty object of
full bars long so I'm going to click on
that option there
now what this does is puts an object
into the timeline so into the first
track of four bars but there's nothing
in it if you tap spacebar and play that
it's dead there's nothing there stop
that down here is what is called a
virtual keyboard and if you click yet
mouse button and play it will play the
instrument that is showing up here which
is the piano probe yeah click away but
what I want to do is I want to make a
drum beat so double-click the object and
that will take you into the MIDI editor
now this looks a little bit daunting but
it's nowhere near as bad as it seems
let's just close at a moment here is the
keyboard on the horizontal scale and
here is the object double-click the
object again all they've done is turn
the keyboard on its side so here's the
keyboard on the left and here is the
object which is four beats long again
you've got 1 1 2 1 3 1 4 2 1 2 2 2 3
until
for four at the top here is the
instrument that is used to produce that
piano pro instrument or sound but I
don't want that I want the drums so if
you click on this drop down menu here it
will present you with the instruments
and I'm going to use the drum engine and
I'm going to use the drums there are
FSU's electro drums in the stadium this
one here
click that this will bring up the drum
engine this is the aging that is used to
produce the film's in MAGIX and here
we've got a keyboard that shows you the
notes you can use to play all of those
rooms let's just click across them ok
and this one here is c1 but what I'm
going to do is to produce a sound
similar to this
[Music]
okay we can close that because we've now
gotten the dump engine already up and
running and on the letter is the
keyboard if you'd like to see Vani right
down the bottom here so let's just
scroll that display down when it decides
to pick up the scroll arrow thank you
scroll down to the bottom here we have
c1 and you can click on that button it
will play that drum the D don't worry
about the highlight that's just because
the button is still pressed at the top
here we have a selection tool and a
pencil tool and varies of the tools to
play around with what I'm going to use
is the pencil tool right so and I'm
going to use C 1 then what it does is
puts an object in this timeline we use
in C 1 and D if you remember you want
that one and what I'm going to do there
is to put a D in 1/3 here and we can
play that touch spacebar
I'm going to use the selection tool
again I'm going to highlight those two
objects don't forget these are still
objects they're just objects exactly the
same as you see in the tracks pop it
over the center of the first object
press the control key down and I'm going
to copy that
to bar to 1 and 3 1 where are we go if
you notice when you move these little
doubt it will play all sorts of noises
it's actually dynamic and I'm going to
copy it to for one also so let's just
click away from that and let's play that
and so it repeats stop that close the
MIDI editor down and that is now part of
this object you should click away from
the object timeline the plane marker
there at the start let's just play that
and so it repeats let's double click
that and let's just move this other way
just as much as this is an object that
being that can be copied for the ctrl
key down and copied right so anyway
right just believe that so this is an
object just as much as in here these are
objects so these can be copied to so
what I want to do is take this noise or
snare whatever you want to call it I'm
going to hold the control key down and
I'm going to copy that
four beats further along yeah one two
three four and I'm going to take the
last one here and copy that one fold it
along not so and now I'm going to play
that
stop that
close these MIDI editor down and now
that is what that object sounds like in
the tracks let's play and so it repeats
let's extend the amount of play time and
what I'm going to do is highlight that
as usual in fact they just click away
from that what we can do here is
highlight the object right-click and
look at the properties of that object
and here it says the object name now you
can give it any name you like so you can
click and delete that menu and let's
just call it yum + noise what happened
to the D okay we'll put a D in there
move the D come on there we go and now
it's got a name drum + noise using the
drum ancient and the reason I've used
the plus side there is because magics
won't allow you to use the ampersand
sign it'll just put them under like out
- there instead and if I hold the
control key down now let's click and
drag and copy that and put it up to the
end and copy and let that go click away
for me
now let's play that
[Music]
and they have it more hopefully that's
giving you an idea of how you can
generate your own sound loops in MAGIX
you can use any of the engines that you
want that enjoy having fun playing
around with them I hope that's been
helpful to you
[Music]
