It can be used in any genre to add some interest, and tonal variance in your productions. In this class Gary will go through how to use a Distortion unit into your digital audio workstation (DAW). He'll go through the different types and variances of distortion like overdrive, saturation, amp emulation and bitcrushing. Plus, how they can be used on different instruments
You'll learn the following:
