Description

Hi guys! Thanks for considering and purchasing this course! This is an introductory course to Logic Pro X and using vocal music production techniques through recording and plugins! This course starts from the basics and gradually will get a bit more challenging which is the fun part!

We will be exploring vocal effects including reverb and delay, EQing your vocal and automation, Flex Pitch and Flex Time, Vocal Chopping, Autotune, Chorus FX, Vocal Transformation, Vocal doubling and harmonies, Vocoder and Sidechaining.


This is what you'll need to get by with this course:

  • Logic Pro X on Mac (required for all episodes)

  • CLA Vocals by Waves plugin (optional)

  • Little AlterBoy by SoundToys plugin (optional)

  • Kickstart by Nicky Romero plugin (required for last episode)

NOTE: I am not affiliated with these plugins. I just love what they do in regards to vocal production!


You can easily find and purchase these plugins online. They are quite cheap for what they do. However, some plugins are optional and not a requirement as I'll be showing both a Logic Pro X in-built plugin version and an external plugin version in those videos.
