Description: This course focuses on whether classic studio gear works equally well for electronic dance music as it does for acoustic rock/pop. Watch Kirk’s fascinating and detailed research to find out! This week, Sonic Academy welcomes renowned British techno producer and record label founder Kirk Degiorgio for a new course – How to Use Vintage Plugins in EDM.
Inspired by a chat he had with DJ KiNK, this course focuses on whether classic studio gear works equally well for electronic dance music as it does for acoustic rock/pop. The plug-in (and audio) manufacturers market their emulations of vintage hardware using generic “shopping-mall” AOR rock. The demos and tutorials they release are therefore of no practical use to the many producers who make electronic music.
Does this old skool tech work equal wonders to a TB303 line as it will to an 80’s guitar riff?
Check out this fascinating and detailed investigation by Kirk to find out the results!
