Sound production fundamentals across disciplines
Whether you produce music, compose for film, design game audio, or record podcasts, the underlying physics and technique are the same. This course dives into Sound Waves, Digital Audio, Analogue signals, Microphones, Signal Processing, and how humans perceive location and space. You'll understand not just what to do, but why it works that way.
Demonstrations use Pro Tools, but the concepts apply to any digital audio workstation—you're encouraged to follow along in your own tool so the ideas stick. Downloadable lesson summaries help concepts stay with you between sessions. The overarching goal is to build the foundation that makes you confident and effective whether you're mixing a song, recording dialogue, or designing an interactive soundscape.
Essential for anyone serious about audio work in any format.
About this course
This course will be a deep dive into important audio engineering and sound production fundamental topics. Knowledge of these topics will improve your skills and confidence in any facet of audio production. The concepts are mostly taught in the music production framework, but the course is intended to be applicable to those interested in film audio, game sound design and podcast recording and editing. The concepts taught are transferable between all of those subcategories of audio engineering.
Whether you're just starting out or you've been producing great sounds for a while now I guarantee there will be fundamentals missing from your knowledge base. The overarching topics in this course are Sound Waves, Digital Audio, Analogue Audio Signals, Microphones, Signal Processing and Human Localization of Sounds.
Course concepts are demonstrated using Pro Tools, however it is not critical that you following along with or use Pro Tools. The concepts are generic and can be emulated and solidified using any digital audio software! It is encouraged that you follow along with the demonstrations in your own software so that the concepts taught can stick in your mind.
Summaries of some of the lessons are downloadable and it is highly encouraged that you download and review these summaries at a later date so that the core concepts can stay with you throughout your audio journey!
