To learn more about what you get as part of Audio Premium, read this. To take a peek inside this tutorial, hit the jump! If you’re new to the Games Industry, you may ask yourself, “Why should I focus on ‘selling myself’ when I have only limited relevant experience and little-to-no hands-on experience? Shouldn’t I spend time learning the trade before I try to break in?” The answer to the second question is, “YES,” but it doesn’t negate the answer to the first question, which is, “Your image is one of your most valuable assets. The more polished you are from Day 1, the more likely you are to be able to find the experiences necessary to break... Relative News

Logic Pro’s Sculpture is a completely unique modelling synth, and if used correctly can create dynamic and extremely professional sounds. Most people are deterred by Sculpture as it looks a bit scary. This tutorial breaks each section down and explains how it is used. The Basics At first glance sculpture looks extremely daunting, but if you break it down into blocks its as easy as any other synthesiser out there. The fundamental sound producer in Sculpture is the string. This vibrates in different ways to produce notes. The oscillator equivalent in Sculpture are the Objects. The objects react with the string in different (predetermined) ways to create variation and timbre. The resulting tone is then sent through a complex filter. After that there are several effects including Delay and a very unique Body EQ. The Objects and the String Sculpture has three Objects, these react with the string and produce sounds. Each object has a different set of ways that it will... Relative News

Twice a month we revisit some of our reader favorite posts from throughout the history of Audiotuts+. This tutorial was first published in August 2008. You may have witnessed Drum & Bass’s dramatic evolution over the past decade. From it’s Jungle origins Drum & Bass has now matured into a genre that overflows with adrenaline, excitement, strong production values and an intensity rarely found in music today. To think all of this began with the a spark of inspiration and some drum-solos (breakbeats) sampled from black soul and funk recordings of the early 1960′s. In this tutorial you will learn the time honored techniques of manipulating one of these famous breaks and fashioning it into Drum & Bass sensibilities.

In this week’s Audio Premium content, Bobby Owsinski concludes his in-depth series on “The Art of Music Production”. This week we look at self-production—what it takes and how to do it. To learn more about what you get as part of Audio Premium, read this. To take a peek inside this tutorial, hit the jump! This is the last in the series on music production based around my new book, The Music Producer’s Handbook, and it deals with self-production, a process that’s become very common these days. Just because you own your own studio or have some production experience doesn’t necessarily mean you’re able to produce yourself though. As you’ll see, it takes a strategy that goes beyond the nuts and bolts of normal production. Self Production is simultaneously one of the most difficult things to do in music, and perhaps one of the easiest. Every artist hears what their music should sound like in their head (that’s the easy part), but it’s sometimes difficult to get it to actually... Relative News

Hey everyone—thank you once again for reading my tutorial! Today we are going to take a voice (singing in this case) and make it sound like it “digitally breaking down.” What do I mean by that? Well have take a listen to the example and find out! Ready to go? Then lets break some bits! (Or bytes if your prefer.) Download audio file (step_5.mp3) Step 1: Creating the Digital Sound First we need to determine what the core sound should be that we will use to break down the vocals. When I think of something sounding “digital” I usually think of wind chimes. Wind chimes have a very bright attack, a quick decay, but a long sustain (especially if the chimes keep hitting one another) and you could say it is like little pieces of data being quickly sent off somewhere. And while this is all well and good, if we use wind chimes as they are, we will get a smooth fade away that to me doesn’t sound much like a break down. But fear not we can get that sharp breaking effect from some simple... Relative News
