Topic 4b: ReWire and Client ApplicationsObjective: Participants will learn how to setup and use host and client audio applications. Materials: The instructor will use the included exercise and assets or provide an alternate exercise that focuses on setting up and using Reason as a ReWire client application. Procedures: The instructor will discuss and demonstrate the use and procedures for using host and client DAW applications including… the benefits of using client applications; the available client audio applications; the setup procedures including MIDI and audio signal routing; the correct order for starting and stopping host and client applications; the correct procedures and best practices for saving host and client sessions or projects; sequencing in a host application vs. a client application. Class Activities: Participants will complete Exercise 4b: Rewire Notes: _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Topic 5: Pattern-Based Drum Programming and Multi-Output Virtual InstrumentsObjective: Participants will learn to create drum set parts using pattern-based virtual drum instruments. Participants will learn to use the multi-output functionality integrated into many virtual MIDI instruments.
The instructor will use the included exercise and assets or provide an alternate exercise that uses a pattern-based virtual drum instrument (Ultrabeat, Additive Drums, Strike, EZ Drummer, BFD, etc.) Procedures: The instructor will discuss and demonstrate… the use of a pattern-based virtual drum instrument; the best practices of creating pattern-based drum parts; the pro and cons of mixing multiple parts (and adding signal processing) within a virtual instrument; how to route the multiple parts of a multi-output virtual instrument to independent tracks; and the gain structure challenges and best practices of using a multi-output virtual instrument. Class Activities: Participants will complete Exercise 5: Pattern-Based Drum Programming and Multi-Output Virtual Instruments Notes: _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Topic 6: Using Virtual SamplersObjective: Participants will learn to use virtual sampler MIDI instruments, including multiple sampled instrument articulations and a multi-output setup. Materials: The instructor will use the included exercise and assets or provide an alternate exercise that uses a multi-output virtual sampler instrument and sample library with multiple instrument articulations. Procedures: The instructor will discuss and demonstrate … how to setup a virtual sampler as a multi-output virtual instrument; transposing instruments (Bb trumpet for example) and SMFs; how to transpose a MIDI region; how to transpose a track using real-time properties; how to use multiple samples and articulations to better emulate human performance; key switching in a virtual sampler; the importance of editing MIDI note velocities to enhance musical phrasing and the expressive use of dynamics; and the importance of editing MIDI note durations to enhance musical phrasing and the expressive use of articulation. Class Activities: Participants will complete Exercise 6: Virtual Samplers Notes: _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Download 3.6 Mb.
