Born to Produce er i farta med et kurs igjen. Denne gangen i Melodic Techno. Kurset benytter Cubase, men er laget generelt slik at du skal ha utbytte av det uansett hvilket innspillingsprogram du bruker. Kurset består av 19 deler – til sammen 3 timer video.
Her er kursbeskrivelsen:
Module 1 – Main Melody & Percussion:
- Finding a scale and staying within it to create interesting melodies
- Using timing & quantize to further embellish the characteristics
- Produce a unique percussion track that drives the track along with energy and rhythm
- Extensive use of EQ and compression to tidy / clean the sound and finish up with a professional mix.
Module 2 – Kick, Bass (Low End):
- The importance of getting the low end right (difference between an amateur and a pro production)
- Learn to sculpt and mix the kick and bass together so they work in harmony, and provide the hugely important, energetic low end.
Module 3 – Supporting Layers:
- Adding more elements – lead, pad and arpeggiator.
- Sound design
- Using free plugins to help get a clean mix (watch Demis use his expertise)
Module 4 – Song Structure:
- The structure (or arrangement) of the track is also important as this is what keeps the listener engaged for the duration of the song. Learn how to create different sections at the right times to create a push / pull effect with tension and release.
- Taking the energy down and up for those all important breakdowns and builds in this genre.
Module 5 – FX:
- Blending our different sections together (from the structure module) and create more ups and downs in the energy level.
- Adding effects, such as risers, sweeps, large hall kicks and downfalls
- Sound design
- Sculpt with filters, EQ, compression, volume shaping, tape saturation and more.
Module 6 – Mixing & Mastering:
- Addressing mixing problems
- The importance of having constantly evolving sounds
- Automation
- Mixing with pink noise – what is it and how to do it
- Basic mastering
