Synopsis

Derived from the well-known, best-selling series "The AudioPro Home Recording Course Volumes One-Three," this is the fourth out of a series of six books and specifically covers producing music with audio samples, loops, and MIDI. Up-to-date and comprehensive, the book details the how, why, and what of these and other modern methods of music composition and recording, from building a track using loops, to how to design a MIDI system, to sequencing. Part of the "S.M.A.R.T. Guide" series, "The S.M.A.R.T. Guide to Producing with Samples, Loops, and MIDI" is written in a style that is direct and accessible to those with no previous experience, but to more experience professionals as well. The complete series is designed to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date education on classic and modern techniques for professional audio production. Providing a logical progression of knowledge, if the entire series is followed from the first through the sixth title, you will gain a very well-rounded and clear understanding of audio recording. You also have the option of focusing on one title to learn one aspect of the audio recording process - in this case modern methods of music composition.

This combination of easy-to-understand explanations of concepts and a DVD that aurally and visually illustrates the concepts contained in the text makes this a unique and valuable learning experience for anyone in this field.
