T6 - Drum Programming
Presenter:Justin Paterson, London College of Music, University of West London - London, UK
Abstract:
Drum programming has been evolving at the heart of many studio productions for some 30 years. Over this period, technological opportunities for enhanced creativity have multiplied in numerous directions. This tutorial will demonstrate a number of these directions as they are often implemented in contemporary professional practice, showing contrasting techniques used in the creation of both human emulation and the unashamedly synthetic. Alongside this, many of the studio production techniques often used to enhance such work will be discussed, ranging from dynamic processing to intricate automation.
The session will include numerous live demonstrations covering a range of approaches. Although introducing all key concepts from scratch, its range and hybridization should provide inspiration even for experienced practitioners.
