Sound.org and Waves have announced the availability of their latest OpenMix interactive course: Hit Record, An Inside Track to Music Production with Waves, by Yoad Nevo.

In "Hit Record", London-based hitmaker Yoad Nevo shares the exclusive recording techniques and personal musical insights he has developed over more than two decades of studio experience. As a producer, engineer, arranger, programmer, and multi-instrumentalist, Nevo's work can be heard on releases by the likes of Bryan Adams, Jem, Sugababes, Air, Goldfrapp, The Bangles, Dandy Warhols, and many others.

Hit Record is more than an overview of pop production techniques; it's an over-the-shoulder view of a hit producer in action.

You'll learn:

• Advanced waveform editing.
• Creative instrumental arrangement.
• Choosing and positioning the right microphone.
• Comping the perfect vocal track.
• Imaginative drum tracking techniques.
• Innovative synthesizer processing.
• How, when, and why to use compression, EQ, and reverb.
• Effective multi-genre remixing.

Priced at $80, Hit Record is available now. It includes 5 interactive DVDs with complete multi-track session files.

All OpenMix interactive courses include complete multi-track audio files for hands-on experience with in-depth in-the-box production techniques. You'll not only learn how to track, mix, and master a hit; you'll experience the entire process as it unfolds, first-hand. OpenMix not only walks you through every step of the music-making process, you can even remix, re-master, and add your own tracks to the source material.
