David Nahmani Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) Hello everybody, I will be teaching Logic Pro classes at two upcoming events in Los Angeles: Remix Hotel and TAXI Road Rally 2007. The Remix Hotel is free (Register online), while the TAXI Road Rally is free for TAXI members (not sure if non-members can attend). All of the workshops are free and are hands-on (each attendee will be setup with a station including a Mac computer and MIDI Keyboard), however it is highly recommended to reserve your seat by registering online on Apple's website: Logic Pro Classes Registration Link Remix Hotel Logic Pro Classes: Everyday, November 2, 3 & 4th: 3:30 PM Creating Analog Sounds with Software Instruments This class will show how to make huge analog synth-bass sounds using the ES1 and other Logic Pro soft instruments. You will learn how to use de-tuning, mono or “unison” modes as well as instrument layering to get those fat, rich sounds. If time permits we’ll also explore side-chaining so stick around! 4:30 PM and 7:30 PM Apple Loops Explained; The Industry’s Best Kept Secret In this class we’ll demonstrate what an Apple Loop is, how to use the Loop Browser, including an in-depth look into the power of customized filters. You will also get a quick course in making your own loops from audio files from any program and using them in your mix. 5:30 PM Create a song from scratch and burn a CD And isn’t this the heart of the matter? This class will jam through all the steps to create a basic song including beat creation using step input, recording a bass line while quantizing in real time and sweetening with a loop or two. Then we’ll rapidly cover basic arranging techniques; move, copy, repeat, use of aliases and loops, using the marquee tool to create breaks in looped sections, and polish the whole mix by using a few plug-ins… then we’ll burn it all onto a CD! 6:30 PM Recording and Editing audio First you will receive a quick run-down on the basics of recording audio and using Logic’s powerful included DSP and famous channel strip feature, then we’ll jump into Audio editing; marquee, cuts, fades, cross-fades, reverse-audio, automation and mix. On top of those classes, there will be special guest appearances in Apple's presentation room: Photek Few artists can lay claim to establishing an entire genre of music, but Photek is surely one who can. Having been one of the founding fathers of Drum & Bass he was signed early on by Virgin Records, where he released 3 seminal albums expanding across the borders of his genre.

David Nahmani Posted October 29, 2006 Author Share Posted October 29, 2006 Hey this is just the start. I'm sure in the future you'll see more events like these, around the world. I think so far the Remix Hotel is only in NY and LA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangedog Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 If we are registered for the event do we just show up at the Apple room? Thanks, Sorry figured it out. No need to reply. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin_jazz Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Hey this is just the start. I'm sure in the future you'll see more events like these, around the world. I think so far the Remix Hotel is only in NY and LA. Hi David, Make sure everyone knows that they have to separately register for both the Remix hotel and your Apple seminars. Also, I'm a little confused by the Apple schedule posted: Apple Main Room Thursday 3:00 PM Introduction to Logic Pro 4:00 PM Beats and Breaks using Logic’s Ultrabeat 5:00-7:00 PM Shocklee Inntertainment Panel Series 7:00 PM Photek 8:00 PM DJ Revolution Friday 3:00 PM Introduction to Logic Pro 4:00 PM Beats and Breaks using Logic’s Ultrabeat 5:00 PM Shocklee Inntertainment Panel Series 7:00 PM BT 8:00 PM BT 9:30 PM Exclusive screening of “This Binary Universe” Saturday 3:00 PM Advanced Techniques in Logic Pro 4:00 PM Beats and Breaks using Logic’s Ultrabea t 5:00 PM Shocklee Inntertainment Panel Series 7:00 PM Josh Gabriel 8:00 PM Klayton of Celldweller How does your classes fit in with these? Are you the "Advanced Techniques in Logic Pro"?? or the "Beat and Breaks...."? Or are those separate, open classes to yours? Also, do you know how it will work for the artist appearances? Do you just hang out somewhere and wait--first come first serve--or is there some sign-up? And lastly, do you know if significant others can show up for the evening artist appearances?? I guess I can have her sign up too.... Thanks, Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 The classes you list are in the "Main Apple Room", a 30 seat amphitheatre that will probably receive more people than that. I don't think it's necessary to register for those presentations. My classes are in a side room. You have to register for them because they are limited to 12 seats and they are hands-on: each one of those 12 persons will get a mac and a MIDI Controller to work with. You can register to the Remix Hotel as you arrive to the event, however online registration might save you some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Nahmani Posted November 3, 2006 Author Share Posted November 3, 2006 Hahaha... tu es francais? C'etait vraiment super. Mon seul regret est que j'etais tellement occupe que je n'ai pas pu prendre le temps d'aller voir les autres presentations sur Logic.

beatz Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Ah, c'est dommage. Non, je ne suis pas français mais britannique de naissance. En revanche j'habite la France depuis 11 ans, alors on peut me considerer comme étant français. T'es français toi? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Nahmani Posted November 3, 2006 Author Share Posted November 3, 2006 Rarement. En fait ca me fait tout bizarre de parler francais. J'ai habite a Paris pendant 4 ans: le 11eme (the best: Bastille!), et le 13eme (bof). ... . Tu habites ou? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatz Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 J'ai la chance d'habiter la Rue du Poteau dans le 18 eme. C'est juste derrière la Butte Montmartre, entre Sacré Coeur et Porte de Clignancourt. Un quartier trés commercant, très vivant et pas trop cher entre le coté "chic" de Lamarck Caulaincourt et le populaire de Clignancourt. Bref, je m'y plais bien! Je connais bien bastille, c'est un excellent quartier. J'ai bossé au Studio de la Bastille pendant quelques temps comme preneur de son.

David Nahmani Posted November 3, 2006 Author Share Posted November 3, 2006 La butte Montmartre! Le meilleur quartier de Paris! Le 18eme: L'arrondissement des musiciens! Est-ce que tu te souviens de cet hopital qui avait ete transforme en grand studio de repetes pour musiciens? Je repetais la bas a l'epoque... il y avait aussi Kolinka (Telephone), les gars de la Mano Negra, Lofofora..... du bon temps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatz Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Non, je ne connais pas, sauf si c'est le studio auquelle je pense qui se trouve prés de Chateau Rouge... La ou se trouve les locaux de répète de FFF. Téléphone, ahhh... c'est vieux ca ! MDR, j'etais encore qu'un gamin dans les années 80 A vrai dire j'ai pas trop suivi la culture pop francaises, mais je kiffe Gainsbourgh. "Cargo Culte" = enorme!

David Nahmani Posted November 3, 2006 Author Share Posted November 3, 2006 Et Melody Nelson! Haaaa Gainsbarre... Mais c'est vrai que des que je me suis serieusement interesse a la musique, la scene anglaise etait plus excitante que la scene francaise, je dois etre d'accord!
