CapFive Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 Ok so I am pretty savi with my mixing ability on the computer when it comes to pre mixes but I have never really tried to produce, can anyone give me some direction on where to start? Maybe a tutorial? I have some mad ideas for remixs and I am keen to create Quote
LabRat Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 defs work with tutorials over youtube. theres millions! best thing i would do is get a macbook pro, open garageband and understand how everything works. from understanding midi, structuring loops and mixing and eqing.garageband comes free with every mac and is a brilliant learning ground. heaps of great loops and a decent sound library. the new version of garageband comes with a few extra features and is layed out more similar to logic then what it use to be. the good thing with doing it this way is that you dont need to pay for anything. you just open and learnonce you get the hang of garageband, logic is the next step.thats just my opinion. hope it helps Quote
Cupe Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 try some demo DAWs, find one you liketutorials on youtube etc and ask your questions here Quote
Lurk6r Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 For a second I thought that said"I want to learn how to REproduce" Quote
Jaz Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 djwarehouse does ableton courses.what are the courses like? recon it'd be worth it? any idea how much $? Quote
fackedd Posted May 31, 2011 Posted May 31, 2011 It's on the djwarehouse website im pretty sure, just google it. My nets capped at the moment so i cbf doing it.It's pretty expensive from what I can remember. as is their normal dj course, but from the looks of it, seems pretty intensive.I think lightsounds do some too, might be only dj courses though.

Gandy Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 stepping into the world of garage band (since it came with my macbook pro and its free) this weekend and having a good ol bash. Starting to feel all giddy with excitement to think that eventually, i will be able to make my own track, with just the sound i like, then actually dropping it into a mix. Hoping my piano theory background will at least help me a littlethis pretty much sums up i feel Quote

LabRat Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Logic is a massive upgrade. It's the Mac daddy of garage band. Get a hang of garage band then go for logic Quote
