VIRTUOSO VR Tutorial on how to make a full song 

Thank you so much!

You kid are 13? Then enjoy the advantages of modern times, young artist! Be it in graphical art or sound making, we are living in very interesting times. Tools have become so intuitive! So go for it and enjoy the ride! 🖖🏻. I'm turning 53 this year, always active on IT, but only recently got my 1st VR set, and only a very little bit of musical experience (self taught) and I'm having a ball! Same with drawing on a huge samsung note 8 ultra tablet with a pressure sensitive wacom stylus... gadgets have become more than useable, they have opened a whole new world, better tools and new ways of learning... I have been a programmer in my days, and believe me, I have seen bad user interfaces! Virtuoso has been beautifully designed! I was dumbfounded too! I already liked it from the youtube videos I had seen before buying it, but when I bought it and was "in there" myself, it was like wow, so cool, so intuitive! Amazing, better than expected and greater than life! I am still amazed 😂.

@jmgalaxytab2325 What a time to be alive ☺️

Let it be the best one you've made so far! C: Have fun

Yeah, you're probably right. I focused on getting this video as short as I could and went a bit too far with it xd

Bullseye!

Will do! I'm really glad that I've been able to help!

Done

Thank you! I can't promise that I will do tutorials on lofi, but I will make a note for myself :) Currently reggae is on the top of the list of genres I wanna learn :p

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

240p gang! xD We need more educated virtuosos! Thank you

Indeed, now that you mention garageband... I remember garageband because I used to have an iPad, and garageband indeed gave me that feeling too, but Virtuoso is sooooo much better! It blew my mind (but then again I'm not a pro, just an enthousiast beginner). Adding an i-Korg in VR to my wish list lol 😅.

Well, you can use the method I described in this video and use numbers 1564 instead of what I was playing. You form triangles on top of those numbers and you will end up with C G Am F if you are playing in a Cmaj scale

I've heard some reports from other players who had a great success recording real-life instruments with quest's mic c: might be a bit awkward to record instruments like guitar, but harmonica should be really cool! Good luck and have fun! Would love to hear you post your results in our community's discord!

My channel is full of my music :D feel free to explore! So glad I was able to help! My goal for the future is to make a performance where I'll be able to create and perform without cuts like what Marc Rebillet does :p So you can expect to see me perform a full song at some point, but for now I need to get my skills together

@@glitchcloud Same. I'm with you on this journey!! 💯 ❤️ I love these art creation games coming out. Vermillion is my next vr game for real.

Depends on your headset's microphone - Quest 2 and Index microphones are quite decent. All the lyrics in my videos were recorded on Q2 microphone. If you want to use external audio cards together with Virtuoso then you can use companion app to link Virtuoso with a DAW of your choice and use it as a MIDI controller. This way you can have the power and flexibility of a DAW with the virtual instruments of Virtuoso

PC VR! Game is available on steam and Rift platforms. If you own the game on Quest you should also have an access to the Rift version of it :) On PC VR you can also change the camera settings, switching to 3rd person view or even adding LIV passthrough capture. Here are two beautiful examples of those things being used to their full potential: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5fGMvERa2qo.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ofPz72lgYbs.html

Starting to label notes from top left corner is probably not the best thing to do, since the root is on the bottom row and each row above it is shifted 4 tones. So 1a1 will be 4th note in the scale. Better start from the bottom left corner.

But in the end, if you are understanding your own notes - it works. Just be aware that this might be confusing to there musicians and would be troublesome to translate to classical sheet music

Glad you liked it

@@glitchcloud Thank you for that. Will check my data later as 2 songs done, which I thought was decent. I picked up a few tips I will be trying out as you made it look a lot easier then the way I have been doing it.

Come join Virtuoso discord - you can freely share your creations there! We had a buuuunch of newcomers recently and everyone is eager to share and discuss their music c: Everyone is welcome regardless of their skill level! discord.gg/UWJ2Xv56

@@glitchcloud This discord link is not working. Can you please send me a new link for the discord?

@@paz_e_amor_xo discord.com/invite/virtuoso try this then :p

Nope xd I wish I could teach Inity, but I barely know anything about it

Use tempo sync! You can find it on the bottom panel of each instrument c:

Unfortunately not yet, but you can set your tempo sync to 1/12 and create 3 bar loops to cheat your way around this limitation ;)

I know nothing about movemusic, but their official page says that it will come to applab in december of 2022. Maybe it's not out yet?

You can't edit loops after recording (yet). Best you can do right now is disabling the loop manually at the right time or timing your recordings tightly so that you don't need to shorten them. You can also use slow swells of volume to make loop transitions - it will allow you to time things however you want - they will blend in anyways.

There was an update that allows to make loops shorter now 👀 and a bunch of other cool things like volume control over time, shifting, copying and grouping multiple layers into a single track..

What do you mean by default midi sounds?

@@glitchcloud the sound bank. The cheese piano, violin, sax, etc

@@glitchcloud en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_MIDI

Ugh, sorry for not answering for so long. Adding the piano and other classical instruments is tricky because of the way the game produces sounds - they use Helm Synth under the hood and it has a pretty wide range of customization, but making presets that resemble classical instruments is... Tricky, if not almost impossible. I've tried many times to make my own electric guitar with it, but it was mediocre at best. Devs might consider changing the synth engine, but the development is currently being fueled by pure enthusiasm, since there is little to no funding for the project, so it's not going to happen any time soon. I won't give up on the game though, as there is still plenty of stuff to learn even with all the limitations :p

Diffirent camera POV is available only on PC version. In the settings tab there will be a Spectator camera settings with a preview

Yeah, you can't edit your loops after they are recorded. Devs express interest in adding some sort of post-processing, but that portably won't come in the near future, since there are things that are higher on priority list. For now I highly suggest trying to play with one hand and fiddle the effects box, tempo sync, arpeggiator length and tempo - you can get some really cool results this way ;)
