In a very small group, we'll be putting together and customizing the basic Electric Eel synthesizer design which I've designed.

// At Audiotuts+ we regularly put up a reader track for workshopping and critique (find out how to submit a track). This is how it works: you upload your song, and every week or so we’ll publish one here and step away from the podium. The floor is yours to talk about the track and how the artist can fix problems in and improve upon the mix and the song. This track has been submitted for your friendly, constructive criticism. They have put their track (and their heart and soul) in your hands to learn and get useful feedback. Do you enjoy the song or track itself? Does it have potential? Can the arrangement be improved? How did you find the mix? What would you do differently? What do you enjoy about the rhythm track? What can be done to improve it? Is the choice of instruments relevant and effective for the style/song? Are the lyrics (if any) effective? Does the style, arrangement and genre of the song suit them? Can you suggest any specific techniques that might improve... Relative News

// In this tutorial we are going to cover how to use FL Studio’s master pitch and tempo tools to create a massive slow down you’ll hear at the end of some songs. This effect first came from records that would slow down as they came to an end and caused a drop in pitch and speed. Soon DJs would emulate this at a club as an effect. In the digital realm these is no record we can put our hands on, but we can automate a slider or two to get the same effect. If your using another DAW, check to see if you have a master pitch or tempo you can automate in your DAW. With all that in mind, let us begin! Step 1: Pick Your Beat Before we can start the slow down we will need something we can slow down first. To really show this effect off I am going to use an instance of Drumaxx and create beat by using a prebuilt pattern in the Drum n Bass genre. Drum n Bass usually floats around 170-190 BPM and is perfect for our purposes. After that I will drag my pattern out for 8 bars in a piano... Relative News
