Hi fellow Nauts,
A new instalment of the courses I create is here. This Mastering Digitone course covers a lot of ground and has been a huge task to create in a way I felt happy with. The idea was go into depth on Digitone functionality while teaching FM synthesis theory in a way that makes it easier to approach. Then in the second part the focus is set on creating a complex and very complete groove, wit break down, drop and everything needed to arrange it into a full track. With this course you can start designing sounds in a more goal orientated way without getting lost, and then use those sounds to create complete grooves on the Digitone.
The first part focusses on FM synthesis and sound design:
- It’s starts with thorough FM synthesis in a audio/visual and pragmatic way. Showing you in detail why FM works the way it does and ideas on how to control it.
- Sound designing percussion, basses, stabs/leads, and a pad with the theory learned in the beginning
- Creating a basic groove with the sounds we designed
Part 1 contains 80 videos lasting about 4 hours. So it’s a big one
You can find the first part of the course here including an introduction/promo video and the first few videos of the course:
The second part focusses on groove design and arrangement:
- how to make a groove work and to make sure that it doesn’t sound like a loop
- Tools to make sure that the overall sound mix is in balance.
- A complete workflow from start to finish to create a solid groove, a complete break and drop, and even pattern variations to be used in song mode.
If you end up getting it, I hope you enjoy it. It was a lot of work but also a lot of fun to create.
Cheers!
Dave
