I just had my first session with Allan. I took a lot from it. At my request we started out at the beginning, by preparing the ground for producing. We built a custom starting template for my DAW for when I start a new project. This helps me to better organise my work flow and save me time going forward. Building my own custom template with Allan has given me a solid understanding of how the DAW's mixer and arrangement window should be set up prior to starting the creative process. I learned a hell of a lot in this first session.
Thanks Allan.
I confess that I did not know Allan Morrow until I see an advertisement for his mixdown and mastering course which took my attention. Well, checked his work which is insanely good (even added him to my Trance artist list for sure), and then "Well why not try one of his courses?".
I can totally say that he is not only talented in making music but also in teaching. The level of details and his explanations are amazing! I have been "eating" courses in order to improve my mixdown and being able to learn to master lately and I got really impressed with how many tips and tricks you get from this course. So, if I recommend it? I totally do!
I am now four sessions ahead and thoroughly enjoying it.Allan has been a joy to work with so far breaking stuff step-by-step stripping stuff back to create an element of understanding for a novice as myself. His teaching style is perfect for me but I have no doubt that anybody who applies to the course whatever level would be inspired as well as walking away from each session more confident in the last .
There's so much choice, these presets will cover more genres than just trance and with so many in these packs they will add elements to anything you're working on in your DAW. Great value for your money.
So I have been learning off allan for the last year and all of he's tutorials are so in depth and very easy to go along with and he has given me some feedback on couple of tracks witch I have applied to my current tracks to get my tracks up to Industry standards witch
has led me too getting singed to my first label so if you want too get singed or just learn about trance production allan is by far the best at what he does
I've used these as a part of patterns programmed on good old Electribe EMX. It did a good job and added a fresh twist to my live act.
Ottimi suoni Sylenth1 ottima Trance mi hanno aiutato molto per una futura traccia uplifting trance. Consigliatissimo
Some of the little tips and tricks in this tutorial, whilst subtle and easy top implement, make a massive difference to the overall presentation of the track and really help the it feel more polished. Highly recommended.
Finally picked up Spire. What a synth! I needed some acid presets so naturally looked to Allan. And I'm glad I did. Decent selection of acids, from the in-your-face kind to more background/atmospheric variety. Highly recommended.
I used to rely on midi packs to get my melodies because writing an arp melody seemed like too giant of a task to complete. It would get me so frustrated and take me out of my rhythm constantly. Now, I can consistently put together a solid melody within 30-40 minutes. It is now one of my favorite parts of my projects. Allan teaches you how to add variety throughout the melody to keep it interesting and how simple a 16 bar trance melody really is. It's a lot simpler than it looks on the piano roll! Thanks Allan!
Give this tutorial a massive thumbs up. The techniques Allan shows on giving depth inside the synthesizers is amazing. My sounds still have plenty of room to improve but they have much more dimension and cover the frequency range much better than they previously were. My sound design knowledge feels massively improved. One massive, time-saving change I have noticed is that I can put together a stack of sounds much quicker and with much less browsing of presets. I am able to fill many of my stacks with 1 maybe 2 sound banks now, where I used to find myself scrolling through numerous different banks. You will learn through his video that you can produce several different versions of 1 preset or sound. This tutorial has made a huge impact on my production and I highly recommend. Your next project will show massive improvement, I guarantee it!
Excellent acid stabs and sequences, I used them immediately in the track I was working on.
In our last session together Allan pointed out a few minor details in my track mastering. He talked about perceived loudness, not relying so much on metering and why some reference tracks I compare the LUFS with are much lower than I get but the reference track is still as loud or louder overall. He suggested using a different meter to get a more reliable measure from. Also to stop cutting too much a way from the bottom end of my tracks and be more analytical listening to all the frequencies when referencing and then fixing issues if needed
As always, great stuff by Allan. He explains everything so well, why he makes the decisions, how he achieves the sounds and feelings. Fantastic. I’ve said it before, but Allan’s tutorials have literally changed mr life!
Great course which helps save time and teach you in detail how to make a remix of the track. Definitely if you want to produce new remix you should have this course!
Excellent tutorial, very detailed and well presented. Will definitely be pruchasing further tutorials. Thanks
I no longer feel lost when it comes to production. I used to be daunted by the vast amount of plug-ins that logic has. Now, I feel there is hope.
These kicks are solid and sound great. I have deleted so many older kicks now when I purchased these as they fit nice in your track. No need to eq or compress these proper sounding well worth it.
These pluck sounds are absoulutely a ge changer for me. Love all 30 of them and they all sound unique in their own. A bit of tweeking now and then to them to fit your track is all you need. I'm absoulutely loving it and it was worth every penny!
All samples are labelled by key and more importantly are in the stated key (I checked). Great sounding samples, this is my goto kick pack for trance production.
