Build upon your core platform skills in any DAW such as Ableton, Logic, Pro Tools, or FL Studio and begin to you journey into the realm of effects. Think of this class as the answer to the question: “What do all the buttons and dials do?”.

Instructors will cover all this foundational info and explain how synthesis, mixing, and effects all share a common lexicon. It is vital that creatives familiarize themselves with this language before venturing onwards!

Key Concepts:

  • Frequency Effects (filters, equalizers, etc.)
  • Temporal Effects (reverbs, delays, etc.)
  • Dynamic Effects (compression, etc.)
  • Basic Subtractive Synthesis (and its use in effect processing)
  • Metering
  • Mastering Concepts
  • Mixing Methodology
  • Mixing Tools & Concepts
  • Automation
