Tech Trance Melody
This tutorial is absolutely show stopping when it comes to learning that tech trance sound. It is a tutorial that just keeps on giving. I’ve watched it a few times and still taking new ideas and tips away from it. Thanks Allan, top drawer

Bobby’s Review
I’m a pretty advanced producer, and a lot of what was gone over in the video I already had a pretty good grasp on. Very good tutorial though, it has been a while since I have seen someone use a single note for pads and strings. Definitely made me think I might need to go back to using that method some. I mainly use chard’s these days and sometimes things just need to be simplified.

Amazing tutorials
I'm Gary Leroy, I already have some releases on different labels, but I had some problems at some points. With his Tech-trance tutorials all my problems were solved, and I learn a lot of new techniques. I totally recomend them because they are not a prepared tutorials, in fact he does everythng from start, and you can see perfectly all the problems which you can find working on a track. And the most important, how to solve them. Looking forward for the next Tech-trnce tutorial.
