Warp Academy Art of Synthesis? (Black Friday Sale)

[musikmachine]

There's a sale on 10 of their courses. https://www.warpacademy.com/all-courses/

Sound design is one of those areas i have been wanting to improve, i can design my own sounds but would like to get more advanced.

So is the stuff contained not easily available online? It seems quite advanced and in depth and all encompassing.

But the sounds seem to based around more industrial and aggressive styles looking at the curriculum and the demos seem to confirm that but it says it covers everything for you to design any sound in any genre, true?

...So is the stuff contained not easily available online? It seems quite advanced and in depth and all encompassing.

There are a plethora of tutorials and courses available, but in looking at the one I think you are referring to, it does seem very thorough/far reaching. $75 seems reasonable to me, fwiw. But then, I've spent far more on a single book... sooo, taking into account that price/reward ratio's are quite personal. I'm assuming it is this one?

Agree with you on "seem to be", but the synthesis fundamentals (themselves) covered, are not genre specific, so expanding ones sound 'design' skills, would lend itself to the direction YOU would be taking that experience, no?

I was impressed with the little I watched of the above, as the guy had the same take on Ableton Live, that prompted me to get it way back, which is that it IS a "modular" environment. Which is how I have always used the session view. One big-ass 'rack'.

Yeah that's the one. Yeah i could spend as much on a book but i'm trying to determine if it delivers cause of time invested etc and it's black friday so was holding off while deciding what to get in the sales.

Yeah fair point but my approach is to design sounds that i'd use and then save them as a rack for efficiency.

I was impressed too though, very clear and concise on the breakdown of FM especially basing it around Operator, a synth i'd like to incorporate more in my tracks.

Anyway 30 day money back guarantee. I don't see warp academy mentioned as much as i'd expect if the courses are that great, maybe it's the cost but maybe someone around here has taken the plunge and has the inside track.

Cheers!
