Workshop 3 TUTORiAL
1 GB
Join mix engineer Tony Maserati at Studios La Fabrique to explore multi-track sessions of K.Flay and Maggie Koerner. Throughout this nine-part workshop, Maserati breaks down his various approaches towards enhancing each individual part in the producer’s sessions. Learn more about processing 808 bass, kick, snare, percussion and vocals in the edgy, trap-inspired song ‘Dreamers’ from K.Flay’s 2018 Grammy-nominated Best Engineered Album. Broaden your palette on creative ways to treat electric guitar, acoustic guitar and piano in the soulful, blues-infused ‘Shadows’ by Maggie Koerner. Step-by-step, Tony Maserati demonstrates his ITB techniques for EQ, compression, tube saturation, harmonic distortion, tape emulation, stereo enhancement, signal doubling, shifting pitch, blending samples and adding effects. He also refers to the important topics of phase coherency, mono compatibility, edit artefacts, frequency masking and tonal development.
