MUSC 248 Advanced Production: Sampling and Synthesis
Music producers have at their disposal a set of powerful tools that enable them to create, shape, and refine their sounds in their studios. In this course, we will use Kontakt and Reaktor for a hands-on approach to building virtual instruments and synths. We will address topics such as synthesis and sampling, and we will create and shape pads, basses, and drums by using virtual instruments and third-party plugins. Students compose more advanced creative projects using the instruments they create.
