Description: Volume 12 lifts the lid on the production and engineering tricks for Uplifting Trance tracks.
Uplifting trance, sometimes termed “Main Room,” “Euphoric,” “Anthem,” or “Peak Time,” is one of the most dominant forms of dance music worldwide, consisting of energized melodic riffs, a fast tempo, and a driving bassline. Almost guaranteed to fill the dance floors, this DVD dissects the genre and discusses in detail how it’s composed, constructed, and engineered.
As with all of our genre driven DVDs, we start with a blank sequencer and gradually construct an uplifting Trance track, examining the compositional, production and engineering skills and techniques employed in its creation for each step. We cover the entire process from the initial starting point of getting the ideas down, through synth programming, application of effects and processing, and the arrangement techniques including examining the ideas behind the dual bass system, the builds, breaks and how to write and synthesize that all important lead melody.
Reaching close to 9 hours of video spanning over 2 DVDโs, this edition also contains each individual audio channel from the finished track, all of the MIDI, all of the programmed synth settings as presets and all the created drum timbres individually as audio. These latter drum samples are copyright free and may be used in your own productions.
