Description
** Udemy Top Seller ** Courses by this instructor are consistently listed in Top Selling Music Courses.This is a class designed for music producers who are ready to get serious about drum programming. The art of programming drums on a MIDI grid, in drum machines, or with audio files can be tricky to master but when you finish this class, your tracks will have the extra energy that comes from professional drum tracks.Dr. Allen is a professional musician, top-rated Udemy instructor, and university professor. In 2017 the Star Tribune featured him as a "Mover and a Shaker," and he is recognized by the Grammy Foundation for his music education classes. 100% Answer Rate! Every single question posted to this class is answered within 24 hours by the instructor. I'll be using Ableton Live and some Logic in this course, but it will be easy to following along on whatever program you are most comfortable with. We will start the class off with an explanation of working with samplers and working on the MIDI grid. Then we will learn to adapt that pattern to work for a number of different styles, including Drum and Bass, Trap, and Dubstep.DRUM PROGRAMMING MASTERCLASS, PART 2: SAMPLERS & SEQUENCING is a comprehensive class - that means there are three (3!) different classes that together make the complete sequence. This is Part 2. Also in the class, we will be doing a number of analysis projects. That just means we will load up some tracks, and re-construct the beat in the track. Doing this will help us to see how those beats are built and guide us in making our own beats. Topics include:Tools of the tradeWhere to find good, free, samples (My favorite sites!)Tools of the tradeWhy work with samplers?How samplers workThe classic hardware samplers: The Roland 808Note On, Note Off IssuesVelocity Drum and Bass patterns"Playing It In"Quantization SettingsControllersRecording ControllersUsing Ableton's Groove SettingsDubstep PatternsUsing Effects in a Drum PatternFilteringDelay EffectsReversed SoundsPitch ShiftingElements of TrapProgramming Trap BeatsDynamic EffectsGhost NotesNoise RisersHumanism...
