DrumNet Explained®

HiDERA | 28 March 2025 | 68 MB

If you’re wondering what AI can do for drum sampling, wait no more. In this DrumNet video tutorial course, production expert Larry Holcombe will walk you through DrumNet, the AI-powered drum machine from Session Loops that could revolutionize the way you build beats for good! From adding built-in sounds and programming a beat with the sequencer to creating your own custom samples, everything is covered in detail, so you’ll be thoroughly familiar with the instrument and ready to start using it on your very next production. These DrumNet videos are designed for new DrumNet users. To kick things off, Larry welcomes you and provides an overview of DrumNet’s interface, so you can immediately get your bearings and feel familiar as we move through the course. He then covers the Drum Kit view and shows how to add drum sounds – from the built-in collection or your own custom sounds – and generate your own samples based on these sounds, which can then easily be modified further (if desired) with a number of parameters, such as pitch, filters, etc.

Mixing Secrets Explained®

HiDERA | 28 March 2025 | 294 MB

If you’re feeling a bit bogged down with your workflow and/or aren’t happy with the results you’re getting with your mixes, then we have the mixing video course for you. In this video tutorial mixing course, mix wiz Thomas Cochran will show you several ways of mixing smarter, quicker, and more effectively. Whether it’s using combinations of plug-ins in the place of one to more successfully accomplish a goal, using one plug-in (such as a channel strip) to accomplish the tasks of several, or dealing with unwanted resonances, there’s a lot here for everyone. These mix videos are designed for intermediate-level recordists and mixers looking for tips on how to improve their results and process. Thomas begins the course by showing you a fast, tried-and-true method for leveling a signal with the 1176/LA-2A combination. Used on countless hits, this technique is famously used both when tracking and/or while mixing. Then you’ll see how to split equalization duties into two or more EQs, using one more for correction and the other more for color. Next, Thomas teaches you how you can tame unwanted resonances and harmonics with Soothe2 (Oeksound) and Pro-MB (FabFilter), demonstrating on two sources: piano and live strings. This is followed by a look at mixing bass effectively with the classic combination of a Pultec EQ and R-Bass (also known as Resonance Bass) from Waves. Finally, you’ll see how a channel strip, such as the SSL E from UAD, can be used to quickly mix multi-source instruments like drums, reducing plug-in clutter and enabling faster, more intuitive mixing moves.

Logic Pro for the Virtual Composer

HiDERA | 26 January 2025 | 236 MB

Logic Pro expert Stephen O’Connell presents a highly informative Logic Pro video course dedicated specifically to Logic Pro users composing primarily with MIDI instruments. Not only will you learn techniques for easing the burden on your CPU when dealing with resource-intensive VIs, but you will also discover plenty of other helpful tips, such as working with multi-timbral instruments, signal flow routing, resampling sounds, and much more, all of which will greatly improve your workflow. These videos are designed for intermediate Logic Pro users who work with predominantly virtual instruments on a regular basis. Stephen begins with a brief overview of everything that will be covered in this course and then gets right down to business, examining how Logic Pro handles CPU resources and illustrating various ways to maximize your resources in this regard. You’ll also learn how to freeze or disable tracks that aren’t being readily worked on, which will lighten the load considerably (especially in larger sessions), and how to optimize your system for running third-party MIDI libraries. Next, Stephen will show you how to start up Logic Pro without the core audio driver. This is helpful when trying to deal with projects that won’t open correctly or possibly contain corrupted data, etc. This is followed by a demonstration on how to resample sounds from a library when you only need a few notes or phrases, thereby freeing up valuable CPU resources for the other more heavily used instruments.

Layering & Filling Sounds

HiDERA | 26 January 2025 | 229 MB

Are you tired of feeling that your tracks sound a bit dull and lifeless? Don’t you wish there was a way you could make them sound … well … bigger and better? You’ve come to the right place! In this video course, production expert Thomas Cochran will show you numerous ways to convert a stale, anemic-sounding instrument to something that commands attention and turns an ear. With the sound-layering techniques you learn in this tutorial, you’ll never have to settle for a lackluster track again! These videos are designed for producers and recordists that want to increase the impact and vibe of their instrument tracks. After welcoming you to the production course, Thomas begins showing you ways to add texture and movement to sounds, lending complexity to your production without adding clutter. This is done through bit reduction, adding saturation to reverb, and layering a granular synth patch on top of a simple sine keys part. Thomas then shows how you can add depth to a track with modulation and delay effects, which is useful for filling up space without adding another instrument. Next, you’ll discover how duplicating instrument parts (melodies, chords, etc.) with another sound (or more) can greatly increase the depth and texture of an existing part. The great thing about this technique is that virtually any sound is fair play, as they will all complement the original track in a unique way.
