SYNTHiC4TE | 25.12.2011 | 1.41 GB

Our second tutorial on composing, engineering and producing dance music. This course focuses on writing, engineering and producing a trance track. Starting with a blank sequencer, the 3 hour video course is designed to be used in conjunction with the Dance Music Manual (first or second edition) and walks through the construction and programming of the trance track “Sunset”, showing how the theory of the book can be applied into practice.

The recording software was left running throughout the entire construction and production of the track and was later edited down to the most pertinent points filling three hours to fit onto the DVD.

Split into sessions, this tutorial discusses and shows many of the construction and production ethics used by today’s professional dance artists to create Trance, discussing topics such as the inital starting point of getting the ideas down, through to how to approach the synth programming, application of effects, processing and finally arrangement to create the complete track.
