Enter the Puig Vault for a workshop with the esteemed Grammy award-winning engineer and producer Jack Joseph Puig! In this one-hour video series, JJP discusses the importance of analog equipment for imparting certain characteristics to audio. He shows us his astounding collection of gear, and chooses to focus on a few select pieces to convey his concepts. Running a Pro Tools session, JJP feeds stereo drum tracks to his rare ADR F769 Vocal Stresser and remarkable Fairchild 670 tube compressor. He encourages critical listening to the source material with and without the inserts, and describes in detail how and why the gear is affecting the signal in certain ways. He also compares the results of summing his stems digitally versus analog, through his custom-built summing mixer. Furthermore, he differentiates between the sonics of his Neve, API, and custom tube stereo buss transformers.

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.

Join us at Jacquire King's Nashville studio for a in-depth workshop on recording, production, and mixing techniques! Each episode of this 16-part series focusses on tips and tricks used by the Grammy-winning engineer, who reveals many facets of his record-making process. Using Pro Tools sessions of three different songs, King demonstrates his methods and gives reasoning for their application to the source material. Some of the numerous topics covered include his mix buss chain, choosing a vocal EQ, adding presence to bass guitar, and optimising polarity. Not only does he impart a generous amount of his mixing workflow – he also covers his approaches to recording and production. Jacquire shows you his way of tracking drums, punching in a guitar, subtly enhancing a vocal with Auto-Tune, and much more!

Step inside Studios La Fabrique for a workshop with the iconic mixer Chris Lord-Alge! In this series, CLA presents us with a variety of material from a number of renowned artists – vocals from Cheap Trick, guitars from Carrie Underwood and Breaking Benjamin, drums from Green Day, and piano from Muse. Each video focusses on a different part that is processed by Chris 100% ‘in the box’. Using a selection of his favourite plug-ins, CLA demonstrates a number of different ways to enhance the recordings. He does this by combining separate inserts and using ‘all-in-one’ plug-ins, while taking you through his parameter settings and the reasons for his choices.

Infiltrating syncopated beats and left-field aesthetics merge once again to showcase the limits of techno. Left Field Melodic Techno delivers what every forward thinking producer seeks to achieve, all in one sample pack.

When the Screwed and Chopped sound hit mainstream hip hop last decade, it created instant and memorable classics from Houston artists like DJ Screw, UGK, Paul Wall and Mike Jones. This had a lasting influence that can even be heard in more modern artists like Travis Scott. In our newest sample pack, Screwed Soul, we created soulful loops and pitched them down to a unique warble. The resulting textures are unlike anything else we have ever released. We would describe it as smeary, yet also detailed. Grainy, and three-dimensional. Screwed Soul is a melodic loop pack with over 100 sounds including stems for each 4 bar loop, and one shots for each instrument (guitar, synth, bass, piano, and organ).

For more than twenty-five years, All You Need to Know About the Music Business has been universally regarded as the definitive guide to the music industry.

For the first time in history, music is no longer monetized by selling something—it’s monetized by how many times listeners stream a song. And that completely changes the ecosystem of the business, as Passman explains in detail.
