Description: Sound designer Diego Stocco creates sounds using his own set of musical instruments and masterfully polishes them with audio plugins. By watching this course, you’ll learn Diego’s secrets and improve your sound design skills.
This three-part course starts with a collection of tutorials that explore rhythmic processing. Here, Diego shows you how to create a complete percussion ensemble from a single recording of guitar strings being struck with sticks. The audio processing chain he’s designed is a signal flow masterpiece. It’s like he creates something out of nothing. It’s truly magical.
Next, Diego takes you on a convolution journey. Here is where you learn how to create unusual and stunning impulse responses that become resonant models that you can use to further modify and convolve regular audio into morphed, spectrally sublime versions of the originals. This is not to be missed!
Part 3 of this course teaches you how to creatively capture, modify and sound perform in ways that open up your imagination like no other recording course anywhere. With his inventive microphone and acoustical recording techniques Diego, like a hi-tech, sonic surgeon, microscopically inserts microphones into places where sounds are born to capture their very audio essence. Watch and see how these close-up, molecular stereo miking techniques and acoustic processing strategies reveal audio landscapes and percussion sounds that cannot be produced any other way.
