Things you might want to express:
- Pitch
- Volume
- Distance (in mix)
- Texture
- Harmony
My first attempt in graphic notation:
If I were to do this exercise again I would plan out specific parameters. I automatically set left to right as time, but half way through making the notation I thought of making up and down the stereo field, and so some notes don’t fit accurately within the field. I would like to go back and label the parameters to make it easier to understand. My favourite part of this notation method was the blending of elements, I could quite easily express the link between the low synthesiser and the bass drum by weaving the notation. The circular symbol on the left is an attempt at notating percussion, I feel this would be a useful tool to use once I become familiar with the method.
