Creating your own sounds and being able to edit complex presets provides that extra level of control over how your music sounds and the tone created. This course will give you the knowledge to use any synthesiser to create bass, pads, plucks, stabs, sound effects and drums. This will allow you to also customise presets to suit your track and add automation and expression to bring your track to life.

Sampling can also be used to create unique instruments as audio files can contain imperfections that synthesisers don’t create by default. These imperfections can add extra character to your instruments like the sound of a vinyl crackle or tape hiss. You will also learn how to create drum samples from samples and recordings.
