Magix Samplitude 14
The Shepherd
My own whistling

Samples I Used

I created a sample from the freeware VST The Shepherd, a wonderful whistle synth. I created a second sample from my own whistling.

Process

I put the whistle synth sample into Sawcutter 2.0 and sequenced the melody. I added a second sequenced melody of my own whistle to make a slight variation in the sound. I applied an amplifier simulation (4 x 10 British Solid State Jazz) to the vocal, and re-paced it a bit.

Other Notes

I created this remix in a couple of hours. The melody seemed to flow the minute I sat down to write a melody for this lovely poem.
