Creative Digital Signal Processing (DSP) for Music and Visuals
If you want to be a music producer or sound designer in today’s music industry, you need the tools and resources to face the challenges of tomorrow. Creative Digital Signal Processing (DSP) for Music and Visuals delves into modern sound design techniques that give you the tools to get ahead of the game, in both audio-for-visuals projects and music production.
The course is designed for intermediate to advanced music producers, sound designers, and audio-for-visuals producers, and is especially aimed at online students majoring in Electronic Production and Sound Design. Beginning with an overview of digital audio concepts and audio editing in Logic Pro X, the course continues into an exploration of sound design techniques, including time stretching, Flex Time editing, distortion and filter techniques, as well as FFT-based processing. You’ll also learn sound design techniques with convolution, pitch processing techniques, how to create sample-based instruments for sound design, and how to use mixing techniques such as automation for creative sound design applications. After composing glitch/beat pieces and soundscapes, the course will culminate in a final video sound design project.
In addition to the hands-on component of the projects, the class will also delve into some of the underlying concepts in signal processing. By more fully understanding how these tools work, you’ll be able to get the most out of them in your own sound design projects, and learn to recognize these tools and concepts when implemented in other DAWs and plug-ins.
By the end of the course, you will be able to:
- Create custom-made sound design elements for music productions and audio-for-visuals projects
- Use the Logic Pro X Audio File Editor for creative sound design
- Use time stretching techniques for sound design tasks
- Use distortion and filtering techniques for sound design tasks
- Use advanced FFT and convolution techniques in sound design
- Use creative sound design techniques in music production and mixing
- Compose a glitch/beats piece and a soundscape piece
- Create sample-based instruments for sound design
- Apply all of the above sound design elements and techniques in sound for video projects
