Producertech DnB Melodies and FX Masterclass TUTORiAL



FANTASTiC | 1.17 GB

The third part in this trilogy of courses from one of DnB’s most talented producers and educators, Reso, sees him giving a masterclass on arranging, with a focus on melodic elements and FX. The 90 mins of streamed tutorials come complete with the Logic project from the course and a bonus 100MB pack of DnB samples from Loopmasters.

The course begins with a wealth of tips for how to build the foundations of an intro and breakdown, using mostly existing drums and bass elements from the drop, edited and processed in various ways. Reso then provides a detailed guide to creating, sequencing and processing different melodic phrases and FX, in order to produce a harmonious progression that develops musical themes whilst adding the necessary suspense and growing tension. As well as learning an abundance of sound design, mixing and arranging techniques, entirely with Logic’s instruments and effects, Reso even imparts his process for setting up the master bus, to create a mix-ready track for playing out.

Signing up to the course provides immediate access to well over 90 minutes of streamed tutorials, whilst the completed Logic project from the course can be downloaded for further scrutiny, or to use as a template for producing your own tracks. Furthermore, there are additional samples with the course, so you have not just the knowledge to create professional arrangements of your own, but a number of instant materials to use to do so. Before signing up, check out the free sample module and listen to the arrangement from the course on Producertech’s SoundCloud page, both embedded below.
