So don’t worry, this helps you save time :smile: Later on, this will be used as a midi for your base VSQ. I will fix the melody to the correct pitches later. To make it easy for me, I just keep pressing the same key, I want to make sure I have the timing correct. I don’t have much piano playing experience so I usually record it one verse at a time Because of this, I highly recommend giving time to your brain to “refresh” so you don’t feel complacent with your first draft lyrics.Īfter you have your lyrics ready, what I do to prep the melody is to play my piano to the beat of each syllable. Without fail, I always find something to improve, whether it’s switching out a word/phrase to improve the flow or changing up a whole verse. Then, I do something else for a week (schoolwork) and then I revisit my lyrics. Usually it takes me 30 minutes to an hour. This is something that you have to manually train yourself to listen to, and this is also why I highly recommend singing parts of your song to figure out which part of the word goes up or down.Ī small tip: I usually wrote out all my lyrics in one day for one song. On a word, the stressed part is usually louder and higher pitched. This is because ne and a are more stressed on the pronunciation of these words. Ne-ver goes down in pitch, while a-lone also goes down in pitch. You’re is only one syllable, so you don’t have to split it to different pitches. Part of lyric writing also involves intonation how pitches in words go up and down based on whether that part of the word is the coda (stressed syllable)
It gave me an idea of what BPM to use while singing along to figure out how I want Miku to sound. So, let me break down how I use music theory step by step by explaining how I wrote my first song.įor me, lyrics was first and foremost.

”Music theory is the "code" to a song so to speak, if you don't know how to program the code, you won't be able to "use the software" / write a song.” Here’s another analogy stolen from a comment on r/Vocaloid For this analogy, music theory is the formula needed to solve the math problem. This is where knowing and applying music theory helps. Perhaps, some googling will help solve the problem, but what happens when you encounter this problem again? Under a time crunch? No internet access?
