In this installment of Foundations of Audio, author Alex U. Case explains the fundamentals of delay and modulation effects and how to apply these effects, technically and creatively, to improve the sound of a mix. The course covers adjusting individual parameters such as delay time, level, and feedback; working with long delays to create echoes, enhance groove, and add support; using delay modulation for chorus and doubling effects; and dialing-in spectral effects from delay, such as flanging. This course also includes Get in the Mix (GITM) sessions for both Avid Pro Tools and Apple Logic Pro. Exercise files are also included with the course.

Guitar Lab's innovative learning systems employ a hands-on approach where students "play" their way through the curriculum using learning tools such as POP video, practice rhythm tracks, and interactive tab and notation, which allows the student to play along with the tab and notation, at any tempo, without change in pitch.
Acoustic blues guitar relies as much on stock techniques, grooves and licks as it does on creative improvisation and personal interpretation. And this is exactly how Dalton presents the material; he'll first show you a stock move, then show you how to connect that move to other moves, and then he guides you through various approaches for twisting and turning those moves into your own.

 

Perfect for beginning guitarists as well as players who want to enhance their knowledge, this volume covers basic rock theory, essential left-hand techniques, power chords, rhythm guitar, and how to improvise with the pentatonic scale. Includes licks in the styles of rock greats like Chuck Berry, Van Halen, Led Zeppelin and others. The most thorough book for beginning rock students!

Native Instruments' Massive lives up to its impressive name. Learn how to program this feature-rich virtual instrument in this revealing tutorial by synth specialist, Mo Volans...
 Not big... Not huge... Nor gigantic... But MASSIVE! That’s exactly what this awesome powerhouse synth is all about! However, a massive synth needs a bit of massive explaining. That’s why we handed this project over to Mo Volans; Mo knows synthesis inside out. And in this tutorial you’ll get a road map of the essential functions, routings, waveforms and modulation options that make Massive such a unique synth and a sound designer’s dream come true!
Right from the beginning you’ll learn all about Massive’s basic design and synthesis modules. Mo starts out with a look at all of this synth’s oscillators and sound generators. Next up you’ll dive into the amazing multi-mode filters, effects and master sections. Once these main features are covered, Mo makes sure that you get a deep look at Massive’s more in-depth features: the advanced envelopes, complex modulators, as well as the different performance controls that lurk beneath the virtual faceplate of this NI beast.

In this 3rd tutorial in our series on Music Theory, Master Arranger and Composer Gregg Fine explores the nature of Rhythm and why it’s the driving force in music and composition...

Rhythm is at the very essence of being. Our hearts beat. We walk and run in time. The sun rises and sets. The tides ebb and flow. It’s no wonder that rhythm is at the heart of our music, too. In this tutorial Gregg Fine examines rhythm and shows us the theory behind constructing solid beats and how rhythm is used in different musical genres.

Fundamental 4 continues our series of tutorials dedicated to the fundamental production techniques that all producers should be fully versed in.
This time the course concentrates on composing and engineering melodies for dance records...
To many artists, melody is perhaps one of the most difficult parts to arrange and this DVD aims to demystify the process. Beginning with an in-depth discussion on the music theory behind melodies, the course examines how they are conceived and composed, including a detailed look at the circle of fifths alongside techniques such as balance, counterbalance, contour, energy, drive, dynamics and motifs. The sessions then move on to examine some of the techniques you can use to create your own melodies alongside a look at synthesis and processing for leads in dance records.

Fundamental 3 continues our series of tutorials dedicated to the fundamental production techniques that all producers should be fully versed in.
Fundamental 3 continues to discuss the theory and practice that form an integral part of any dance musicians production skills - this time the DVD concentrates on harmony - specifically the composition and construction of chords, structures, progressions, pads and strings.
Over 3 hours of video tutorials focus on the theory and practice behind the composition, programming, production and engineering of harmony and pads/strings for dance records. We begin with an in-depth discussion on the music theory for chords, introducing the viewer to the theory behind how both chords and structures are composed. The sessions then move on to cover the principles behind chord composition, structure, chord progressions, programming, synthesis, editing and processing of pads and strings in order to add harmony to dance records.

The second tutorial on writing and producing dance music.
This course focuses on writing, engineering and producing a trance track.
 Starting with a blank sequencer, the 3 hour video course is designed to be used in conjunction with the Dance Music Manual (first or second edition) and follows Phiadra through the construction and programming of the trance track "Sunset". It shows how the theory of the book can be applied into practice.
The recording software was left running throughout the entire construction and production of the track and was later edited down to the most pertinant points filling three hours to fit onto the DVD.

In this course, professional audio engineer Scott Hirsch shows how to create an evocative sound mix for a film or video, built from basic audio collected during the shoot and transformed into a final mix using Pro Tools 9. This course shows how to set up and optimize a Pro Tools session template for projects with unique requirements, record Foley and ADR audio layer sound effects perform corrections such as noise reduction and pitch shifting mix for stereo and 5.1 surround sound, and finally how to format and deliver the finalized mix whether destined for DVD movie theater broadcast or the web. Exercise files are included with the course.
