In which case @smillington, I will demonstrate how to turn God Rest You Merry Gentlemen into a funky Breaks track next Tuesday in the Xmas stream!
Silent Night is a lot louder than I remember!
Merry Xmas Paddy
Hey y'all!
Got some tasty drums hits and loops for you this week! It's a really nice selection from a pack called Lounge Breaks, with well played, recorded and mixed acoustic drums, with a pretty wide tempo range, going from 85-115 bpm. So, you should get a lot of use out of it.
You can find it in the DOWNLOADS section.
Enjoy!
yes, post your tracks here... if we only have a couple then that's fine, I can feature them in the next livestream all the same...
This week, we've got some bonus sound design tutorials for you, looking specifically at granular synthesis - one of our favourite types of sound design! The tutorial got a bit lengthy, so it's ended being a part 1, with part 2 coming next week.... part 1 is mostly working with Granulator III (new synth for Suite owners coming out with Live 12). Part 2 will be with Phase Plant.
PART 1
Vid 1 - Intro to Granular Synthesis
Enjoy!
Great stuff!
So, if we get a few more tracks posted in the next week or so, we can get a feedback stream in before the Xmas break...

Yeah in terms of the sound design and mixing skills, you can refer to any of the 'fatter' styles of music, like D&B, Bass Music, Mainroom House, Techno... etc. Seppa, Reso, The Cyborgs all have good pointers in their courses.
As for the arrangement, it's just the same as a lot of other styles only more full on! AMp'd up! Basically with fewer parts and ideas, but way more processing.
We could have a crack at a Hardstyle course, or maybe a bonus set of tuts for members - it would be fun!
