On the DVD
Psychadelic Guitar Loops: Long before computer plug-ins began effecting instruments in weird and wonderful ways, the humble guitar was the focus of much experimentation. Sound designer Richard James has channelled his inner hippy to craft an astonishing pack of 60 heavily effected guitar loops at 120BPM
Hip Hop One Shots: Our friends at Equinox Sounds have put together a collection of drum, FX and instrument one-shots for use in hip hop and urban-style tracks. You’ll find kicks, snares, claps and percussion sounds alongside big bass hits, FX sweeps and atmospheric synth stabs. For those who want to add some ghetto flavour to their tracks, you’ll also find 64 bonus gun-shot sounds!
Recording Vocals: Recording and mixing the perfect vocal is a tricky business, but multi-platinum-selling producer and engineer Kenny Gioia is here to help with three chapters taken from his recent Groove 3 tutorial, Recording Vocals Explained. The first video looks at mic preamps, choosing the right microphone and how best to position your singer.
And much much more!
