This can involve capturing performances of musicians, singers, or even electronic instruments. Recording can be done in a professional studio or at home using a computer and audio interface. A DAW is software used for music production. Popular DAWs include Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Pro Tools, and FL Studio. These platforms provide a workspace for recording, editing, arranging, and mixing audio and MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) tracks.

Making beats for Qochari Dance

Time to make some hard hitting beats for an Armenian folk dance Qochari. Qochari is one of the most famous and beloved Armenian folk dances. It is a group dance performed at celebrations and festive occasions. Dancers form a circle and perform synchronized steps and movements to the accompaniment of traditional Armenian instruments like the dhol  and zurna (double-reed woodwind instrument). Beat making for Qochari will be the process of creating rhythmic patterns, also known as beats, for music production.
