Many courses on Logic Pro go through the production, editing and mixing side of the program, but do not explain the instruments in depth. Understanding the concepts behind how these instruments work, let alone learning the interface can take months and it’s easy for even conscientious people to give up. I’ve read the manual for you – literally. I’ve read every page of that thing and condensed and rephrased that complex bible into a practical course that guides you through each instrument – backed with the concepts you need to understand each one and make it yours. You could take this course and go through the whole thing, or use this as your production instrument encyclopedia – referring to it at will whenever you forget what a dial or knob does.
In this course, you will understand and master all of Logic Pro X’s virtual instrument plugins, synthesizers and VSTs. Starting from beginner level, you’ll learn the deep principles of synthesis and enhance your music by learning how to emulate the instrument, synth and drum sounds of your favorite artists, producers and sound effects designers – as well as a wealth of other music production skills. Each of the many free instruments included in Logic is like it’s own piece of software. Some of these are small like the ESE, ESM and ESP – but others, like Alchemy Synthesiser and Sampler or Sculpture Modelling Synth provide so many parameters they can be so overwhelming they could have their own entire courses. Many people don’t even scratch the surface of what these instruments do and buy new ones without realising how powerful they are for composition and sound effects design for games and film.
