Finding the right sound can be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Learn the fundamentals of synthesis and sampling and gain the depth of knowledge to shape sounds the way you want them or make your own sounds from scratch.
Factory content is great, but everyone has it – your mix needs something special. Learn the art of sampling and synthesis and define the sound of your music using Native Instruments’ Komplete.
“I had no idea about Sound Design before I started. I was confused and didn’t even understand how ADSR worked! Now I am using envelopes to create cool sounds with ease… and that’s just the start!
