Make a Track Using Apple Loops

Lesson Task
I would like you to put together a piece of music in either the Jazz genre or Motown genre using only apple loops.

Your track must contain drums, bass, and at least two additional instruments as a minimum.

It must have a song structure (for example - intro, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus, outro) and this should be laid out in your Marker track and coloured accordingly

Remember to work in even numbers of bars for your sections (8, 16 etc.)

Try and add some variation to the repeated sections and remember to use the volume faders and panning to balance your track.

Your finished track needs to be exported as an audio file and uploaded to your blog, together with some screenshots showing how you put the track together.


Your finished track can be used as part of your portfolio if you wish
