G-Sonique Alien 303 v1.2.0 VST [WIN]

Another boring imitation of the classic 303 sound? No way!
The Alien 303 synthesizer is primarily aimed at generating the ultimate psytrance bassline. Those hard punchy basslines which were always so difficult
to create and fine-tune using any other synthesizer.

We just made it simple!

Even though the Alien 303 is based on the vintage 303 concept, it offers many more features. The audio spectrum of this synth has been designed to offer
the musician possibilities that are totally different from the other solutions. The Alien 303 delivers sharper, fatter and tougher sounds with a crispness that
comes straight out of the digital realm.

Try the new features, like the precision of out special digital oscillators, the unison/chorus emulator or the extreme non-linear saturator. When you are
done being amazed at the fatness of the basslines you have created with the Alien 303, you can start tweaking it to create razor sharp acid sounds and
spooky melodies.

Don’t waste your time trying to fine-tune your Psytrance bass with other synthesizers and try the Alien 303 now!

G-Sonique XBass 4000L v1.0.VST [WIN]

G-Sonique XBass 4000L v1.0.VST [WIN]

XBass 4000 is a new and unique VST effect plug-in designed to facilitate the maximization the bass frequencies.

The virtual circuits of the XBass 4000 combine two different algorithms in order to emphasize the bass spectrum of the track:

– The psychoacoustic algorithm, BassEnhancer, that emphasizes the intensity of the audible bass content

– An analog style saturation unit that enriches the bass spectrum of the tone to reproduce the “fat” and “warm” sounds known and loved
in vintage tube circuits. It also boosts higher harmonic frequencies to expand and enliven the audible spectrum as well as sub-bass spectrum

XBass 4000 is excellent for synthetic and acoustic basses and enriches kick-drums to give them the energy you need to drive your track.

It sounds great together with our Psytrance bass synthesizer, Alien303. Use it in the following configuration: first XBass for the kick-drum
and the second one for the Alien bassline.

Feature highlights:

  • A special distorted bass bell filter for a selecting the bass spectrum that should be maximized. It is possible to select a wide spectrum of bass
    frequencies – from the deepest sub-basses at 15hz to medium-bass frequencies. It’s also possible to set a Slope–Q range for the selected frequencies
  • A psychoacoustic circuit called Bass Enhancer that emphasizes the intensity of the bass spectrum. It uses special algorithms to process sounds
    using psychoacoustic techniques
  • A saturation unit that emulates vintage analog tube circuitry which gives the user the ability to adjust the amount of bass saturation and the volume
    of audible bass saturation
  • Control of the output volume
  • Graphical dB meter showing the level of output volume

The Art of Appreciation: Music & Middlebrow Culture in Modern Britain PDF

The Art of Appreciation: Music & Middlebrow Culture in Modern Britain PDF

The Art of Appreciation: Music & Middlebrow Culture in Modern Britain PDF

From the BBC Proms to Bernstein’s Young People’s Concerts, initiatives to promote classical music have been a pervasive feature of twentieth-century musical life. The goal of these initiatives was rarely just to reach a larger and more diverse audience but to teach a particular way of listening that would help the public “appreciate” music.

This book examines for the first time how and why music appreciation has had such a defining and long-lasting impact-well beyond its roots in late-Victorian liberalism. It traces the networks of music educators, philanthropists, policy makers, critics, composers, and musicians who, rather than resisting new mass media, sought to harness their pedagogic potential. The book explores how listening became embroiled in a nexus of modern problems around citizenship, leisure, and education. In so doing, it ultimately reveals how a new cultural milieu-the middlebrow-emerged at the heart of Britain’s experience of modernity.

K-Sounds Signature Piano (Motif XS-XF)

Merdy - For My Own

K-Sounds Signature Piano (Motif XS-XF)

K-Sounds’ Signature Piano is a sample library for the Yamaha Motif XF and MOXF featuring beautiful samples of a 7’6” Japanese grand piano. Offering pristine stereo samples throughout the dynamic range and a slightly ambient studio sound with plenty of sustain, Signature Piano is poised to become your signature sound.

Signature Piano offers two sample banks, both fully programmed in a variety of voices and performances: The large 456Mb bank provides up to eight velocity layers in a single piano sound – double what is typically available for traditional workstation keyboards. True-sampled damper resonance adds a lush quality to sustained notes. Release resonance and hammer noise samples* provide extra authenticity to the end of every note. A 112Mb bank is also provided for quick loading. Impressive in its own right, it features 4 sampled velocities plus damper resonance!

Signature Piano offers a unique implementation of sympathetic resonance heard when the damper pedal is pressed: Real sampled resonance is provided – far surpassing mere digital effects or convolution. And because the resonance is presented as an independent component of the instrument, its volume may be adjusted, and it can be disabled entirely.

At K-Sounds, we believe the most important requirement of a piano sample is that it be refreshingly playable. That’s why Signature Piano was played constantly during its development process. The result is far greater than just a collection of samples. We believe it is one of the most musical and playable sampled pianos available.

Specifications

  • Stereo samples up to 8 velocities per voice.
  • Long samples with high quality loops.
  • Recorded and edited at 176.4kHz, 24 / 32 bits. Converted to Motif-compatible specs for the final product.
  • Fully programmed voices and performances that take advantage of the Motif XF and MOXF’s unique features.
  • 456Mb and 112Mb bank sizes provided.
  • Wide stereo image.
  • Edited for mono compatibility.
  • True sampled damper resonance.
  • Release resonance samples.
  • Hammer noise samples.
  • Big sound with modest sample memory requirements.
  • Designed to be incredibly playable.

Practical Music Education Technology PDF

Practical Music Education Technology PDF

Today’s music teachers are caught in a conundrum about technology – while all are interested in it and told to utilize it in music instruction, a lack of equipment and funding act as enormous barriers to technology access. In fact, studies indicate that the mere perception of these obstacles may be partly responsible for the gap between these teachers’ interest in technology and the lack of technology integration in the classroom. As a result, students potentially miss out on active, hands-on music technology instruction at school.

In Practical Music Education Technology, veteran music educators Rick Dammers and Marjorie LoPresti help music teachers introduce technology into the classroom by providing accessible strategies to support and enrich students’ musical learning. The authors highlight a plethora of free online tools at teachers’ disposal, and provide options that can be flexible for all school environments and types of teachers – from those with large budgets to those operating on a shoestring, from those well-versed in technology to non-experts. Each chapter outlines pedagogically appropriate resources and strategies that facilitate, support, and enhance music learning, performance, and creation. Additionally, model lesson plans featuring classroom-tested uses of technology aim to empower student engagement while also keeping music learning goals at the forefront. All teaching ideas presented can be tailored to individual teachers’ needs and preferences, making Practical Music Education Technology an essential guide to music technology for the everyday music teacher.

How To Mix Retro Vocals Like THE WEEKND TUTORIAL

How To Mix Retro Vocals Like THE WEEKND TUTORIAL

Want to learn how to mix your own vocals in that retro pop style like The Weeknd?

You’re in the right place.

Who is this course for?

This class is designed for artists, producers, and engineers who are starting out and want to get professional sounding records from their bedroom.

As an artist one of the best skills I ever learned was how to mix. You have COMPLETE control over how your music sounds out and it’s an incredible service if you’re looking for a full-time or part-time hustle.

By The End Of This Course
You’ll have a better understanding of how to mix your own vocals and the steps you need to take in order to achieve the sound you want.

I want to be clear. This isn’t about shortcuts. This isn’t about secrets. This is about learning the fundamentals, applying them to your own work, and taking your career into your own hands. These are tried and true methods I have learned through countless tutorials and recording sessions over the years that I wish someone had taught me at the beginning.

I also want to make the statement that there is no right way or wrong way to this. This is simply my way. If you want to hone your sound take your future into your own hands and craft what sounds good to YOU.
