Okay last one, I say u explain how you do the tunes but could u expand if u have time? This is like a rlly cool hobby 🥺 I wanna be able to do this too 😭😭😭
so really funny story, i actually study music in university which for sure helps, but that’s not all there is to it!
first i listen to the song that i’m planning to make! depending on how familiar i am with the song, i’ll only have to listen to it once or twice! for songs i’m less familiar with i’ll listen to it a few times. once i’m comfortable with the song, i decide on the part that i’m gonna make into a tune! i usually use the first line of the chorus since it’s the part that most people know~ 🤩
then i use a tuner (you can find a whole bunch online or as apps!) and my voice to find the pitch that the section i’m using starts on.
since the animal crossing tune editor is built in c major/a minor, if the song i’m making is in a different key then i have to transpose it to c major/a minor. a lot of the time i’ll just do this by ear and use the tuner to double check the intervals and pitches. honestly, most of the time this is the hardest part.
after that i figure out the rhythm, but i do that entirely by ear. biggest tip i could give you here is to not stress about it too much because not every rhythm is possible in the ac editor, so you’re just trying to get as close as possible!!
and yeah that’s basically how i do it! hope this helped!! ^^
