Creating a powerful trance melody does not have to be complicated. In this tutorial, you can watch the complete process of building an epic trance melody from an empty project.
We start with a simple chord progression, turn it into a driving rhythmic pattern and gradually add melodic variations and additional sound layers using Spire and Sylenth1.
