DAW - Digital Audio Workstations
Nowadays, most of the audio recordings, editing and mixing happens digitally, that is why one of the main producers tools is a DAW, or a Digital Audio Workstation
DAW allows us to record audio, edit it on the fly, play virtual instruments and work with MIDI, mix the tracks using plugins.
Modern DAWs use the same basic principle, but every each one of them has their unique set of features that sets them apartm and every producer can choose one or a few that fit his workflow.
Which ever one you choose, we will learn how to:
- Record and edit audio
- Work with MIDI and make virtual instrument parts
- Sample and manipulate audio
- Build the track from the idea to the finished master
- Mix with stock plugins
You will also learn a lot of tips and tricks that will help you be effective and focus on the creative aspects!
