Description
Francois – Deep House Track From Start To Finish 2022
Producing A Professional Deep House Track w/ Ableton Live 9 Standard + NI MASSIVE (1.3.xx) (Intermediate Level)
What you will learn from this course:
Producing a Melodic Deep House Track
After having taken this class, you’ll have seen a complete production process first hand, ing from nothing and working through all the different important stages of the production process, from to finish. The track is inspired by artists like N’to, Worakls and of course, Francois Rengere.
What’s required?
- Basic understanding of using Ableton (like loading files, creating MIDI clips, etc – check our other mini Ableton refresher in Part 6 for the basics)
- Ableton Live 9.5 Standard (or higher)
- Optional, but not necessary VST: NI Massive (1.5xx or higher) – we are providing presets and explanations for Ableton’s “Analog”, Wavetable and Operator stock synths
- no other 3rd party plugins needed
We have updated this course with additional videos and a project file version only using Ableton Live stock effects and instruments. So the VST plugin NI Massive is not absolutely necessary anymore. You can also run the course and use the files when you ONLY have Ableton Live 10 Suite (or higher versions) installed on your system.
This course and project file runs on Apple Silicon (M1, M1,..) chips as well.
The course will take you through:
- Idea generation (first in Session View, later we switch to Arrangement View)
- Writing powerful chords and advanced MIDI writing techniques
- Writing fat and powerful drums
- Writing melodies
- Sound Design (with NI Massive)
- Making vocal chops and effects
- Creating pitch effects, LFO shapes and noise techniques
- Filtering, EQing, Vibrato, Envelope shaping
- Layering and sound stacking
- Creating deep house arpeggios and melodies
- Creative arrangement (taking your 8 Bar loops and turning them into a full song)
- Mixing: We are completely mixing the track using techniques like “frequency masking”, mid-side mixing, and many more
- Mastering: in the end we are fully mastering the track with a custom Ableton effect rack chain.
What you’re getting:
A complete -to-finish production course
25+ Studio sessions with Francois / Production Music Live
6h+ online video sessions with lifetime-access
Bonus: Ableton Project File created in this couse (using Ableton Live 9 Standard + NI Massive)
