Have you always wanted to approach a hardware synth like a Moog or a software synth like Massive and understand how to program it? Well this course is for you.

The goal of this course is to provide students with a fundamental understanding of how synthesizers work and how to manipulate them to create the sounds they’ve always wanted to make.

Learn essential synth elements such as oscillators, filters, and envelopes: what they do, how they work together, and how to go about creating sounds beyond the manufacturer’s pre-set patches.

UPON FINISHING THIS COURSE YOU WILL KNOW:

How to identify just about any synthesizer by type, old or new, and how to use it
How to create any sound of your own concept using a hardware or software synthesizer
How to incorporate synthesizers and synth-style processing techniques into DAW programs like Ableton Live
How to distinguish where your favourite “retro” synth sounds come from along with other classic sounds like those made by Moog, ARP and Oberheim

TOPICS COVERED

Signal Generators and Signal Modifiers
Types of Synthesis (subtractive, additive, FM, wavetable etc.)
Synthesizer modules – (VCO, VCF, VCA, CV processors, LFO, Wave Shapers)
Common synthesizer layouts
Incorporating synth elements into audio production
Hardware vs. software – finding the right synth for you

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

We cover all the Ableton Live Synths so Ableton Live would be helpful but not mandatory.
We cover Native Instruments FM8 and Massive. Again not mandatory but helpful.
