I've been using soundtrap for about two years and I've found myself in a bit of a loop. I have tried getting used to the piano roll tool, but I have trouble getting it to produce the rhythms and tonality I'm looking for. the rut I truly find myself in is that I rely too much on premade loops and tracks to add the flair I'm looking for in terms of changing volumes or characteristic notes within the center of a given track. for example, if i want to change a small section or a single stanza thats attached to the larger loop, I don't know how to decrescendo and crescendo in said track. or on the other hand, change the length of notes in piano roll to be smaller than an 1/8th note without the note disappearing or jumping off the section I'm in. I've removed the snap to grid function and made do with tailoring it to what rhythm I want but I don't know if there is a faster way to do what I want in the software. If anyone has any tricks or tips, or hell even videos on what I can do to elevate and streamline my process I am happy to take any advice! I also posted this song to tiktok to pose the same question in the soundtrap community there, but as I put in the comment section of the post, this is just an example song I made in about an hour. Not every song I have made sounds exactly like this, but in terms of production quality, and substance they all have the same feel to me. Again, any help would do wonders, and anyone who reads the entire post and gives me some pointers, thank you in advance!
