Nick's Tutorials

• Keep Your Mix Clean
  Those who primarily use software to create their music often lack valuable perspective when it comes to composition, and this can have a detrimental effect on the resulting mixes.  I count myself in this group, and I only recently (within the last 2 years) became aware of what I was doing.  To get right to [...]...
• Creating an Abundance of New Sounds in Ableton Live
  I used to have a rather idealistic reaction to the use of random elements in music, asserting that this was somehow less than artistically pure and that a finished piece that was any less than 100% the result of conscious decision-making was incomplete at best.  As the years wore on, I realized that such a [...]...
• Writer’s Block? Read This.
  I’d like to lay out some tips on getting past writer’s block in all of its ugly forms whether it be apathy, procrastination, or just a frustrating lack of inspiration.  Staring at a blank sequencer timeline is one of the more miserable studio activities that I can think of, so let’s take a look at [...]...
• Keeping Your Composition Moving Forward With Freeze and Flatten
  Have you ever run into overcomplexity while arranging your latest piece of music? It happens to me all the time. It’s that phase of composition where you’ve got all kinds of automation going on, sweeping a filter here and increasing an effect trail there. In addition to automation data, you may have a dizzying array of chopped [...]...
• Listening to Your Environment and the 3 Building Blocks of Sound
  I’d like to touch on the importance of the artist’s experience of the surrounding world and how that experience informs their work.  In short:  Regardless of whether you compose pop music or generative ambient, having a grasp on how the world creates sound is useful knowledge when it comes to creating your own sounds. So what [...]...
• Sound Design for Film Part 3 – Stinger (Clash of the Titans)
  Here's the third, and last, part of the "Clash of the Titans" sound design videos.  This time I cover the stinger sound at the end of the Medusa scene which was covered in part 2.  I go over some inspirations that I had from Ben Burtt's whip sounds from "Indiana Jones" as well as the [...]...
• Sound Design for Film Part 2 – Medusa (Clash of the Titans)
  Time for Part 2 of the "Clash of the Titans" videos.  This time the focus is on Medusa in all her reptilian glory.  I pay special attention to the sound she makes as she slithers along some stone ruins as well as fire and debris elements to fill out the atmosphere of the scene.  For [...]...
• Sound Design for Film Part 1 – Giant Scorpion (Clash of the Titans)
  As promised, I'm doing some videos on my process for post-production sound design.  I don't have any professional experience in movie/game sound, so putting together a demo reel is going to be a challenge without work to show.  The way I'm getting around this is re-designing the sound for movie trailers and any other video [...]...
• Free Spectral Sound Design Plugins for Mac OSX
  I recently downloaded a free, top-notch set of sound design tools that focus on the spectral processing of audio:  SoundMagic Spectral.  Previously known as SoundMagic DSP, these tools offer up an astounding level of control and creativity, allowing the designer to morph sounds in a way that totally obscures the original content.  I must admit [...]...
• Harry Potter and The Sound of Magic
  I just spotted an interview with Andy Kennedy, sound designer on "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" at Filmsound Daily.  It was an enjoyable read because he actually touches on some techniques and ideas that went into the specific magic sound effects.  Science Fiction and Fantasy films offer up so many great opportunities [...]...

  So, do you see what I’ve done here ? This video is: About a classic piece of music A little Christmassy (Although “Do They Know It’s Christmas Time” has to be one of the least Christmassy tunes ever) About recording and production (At least, it includes some footage of people in SARM studios) Thought-provoking (I think), and Includes [...]...

  This is a question I get asked a lot. But before I answer, the disclaimer: Personally, I’m not happy mixing on headphones.

  One Big Game is a charity assembled by game developers to raise money for children’s organizations. Musical games look to figure prominently in the series.

Actually, I don’t even care if anyone agrees, because I know I’ll thoroughly enjoy it. The only bad news is that you’ll have to wait until May to get the release, coming [...]...

• Inside the mind of BT8 February 2010, 6:03 pm
  What do we know about BT? As one of America's most-admired electronic music composers, Brian Transeau aka BT, has a penchant for studio wizardry, euphoric club rushes, and soaring vocals, as can be heard on his sixth album 'These Hopeful Machines' (released last week). With radio-friendly guitar anthems and uplifting progressive house instrumentals, BT's new album sounds like particularly optimistic pop, something that will appeal to both club kids and general pop fans. Dance producers tend to...
• Album of the Week: Pascal FEOS ‘Terra Bong’5 February 2010, 3:25 pm
  It is 1984. In a quiet street in the small German town of Bad Nauheim a 16-year-old kid frantically destroys an encroaching line of pixelated alien spacecraft on a Space Invaders machine in a noisy video arcade. "Hey Pascal, wanna make some money?" says a voice behind him. It's the Italian man who runs a small club opposite. "I asked your dad and he said you can come work for me if you want." "Sure, what will I be doing?" the kid asked. "Oh, just playing some music for my customers. Come, I'll...
• Mr. C and Adultnapper’s big gamble?4 February 2010, 4:26 pm
  It takes a brave soul to attempt to rap over a minimal house record, but if anyone was going to do it it might as well be The Shamen's lovable rogue Mr. C. The Londoner's latest Sycophant Slags single 'Keep Off' (co-produced with Adultnapper), valiantly attempts to inject some fun into the minimal sound with rhymes such as "Mr. C's in the house...everybody go rocking the party right", lyrics that will probably cause the average chin-stroking minimal fan to snicker. However, with the track's Sk...
• Weekend Weapons…Kiki4 February 2010, 1:17 pm
  It's a Saturday night in Berlin and a sweet smiling Finnish DJ named Joakim Ijäs steps up to the sweaty decks at the Watergate club that overlooks the River Spree. Before he drops one beat, the heaving dancefloor knows what to expect. His rich and gratifying sophomore album 'Kaiku' released last year, cemented everything that he had done before. Darkly optimistic techno and sweetly evil melodies on Berlin's Mood Music and Bpitch Control have won Kiki many fans, not least because he's as ...

• The top 30 club tracks of the decade1 February 2010, 6:48 pm
  Look back at the last decade of electronic music and it's hard not to be optimistic. The whopping number of club anthems, and hands-in-the-air moments of dancefloor bliss released during the noughties was staggering, and serves as a reminder that, despite the large influx of releases since the dawn of digital, there are still exciting and timeless dance anthems being made. Here we take a look back at the last 10 years of club music by highlighting our favourite 30 club tracks from 2000 to 2010,...

• Ear Training Results: Parallel Compression5 February 2010, 4:57 pm
  Yesterday, I posted a little ear training exercise. Most folks guessed the compression was the main difference between the two clips, but JP nailed it by guessing parallel compression. You may remember a few articles and videos I posted last summer on parallel processing — Parallel Processing: Bass, Parallel Processing: Drums. To review, parallel processing is simply [...]...
• Ear Training: Drums4 February 2010, 2:44 pm
  Have you ever done ear training? If you studied music theory in college, you probably did. I remember my Theory II class with Dr. Linton. He would sit at the piano and play an interval, and we would have to accurately guess. He started slow, but that didn’t last long. Bum…BUM. “Major fourth!!” BUM…bum. “Minor third!!” He would [...]...

• The 21st Century Object Poster5 February 2010, 2:00 pm
  In 1906, the Priester Match Company held an open contest for the design of a poster. Art Nouveau was in full flower, so surely the judges expected to receive decadent renderings of languid smokers, things perhaps in the style of Toulouse-Lautrec or Alphonse Mucha. What none of them expected was a shockingly bold drawing of two matchsticks, almost antagonistically free of nuance: this winning entry, by a twenty-three year old designer named Lucian Bernhard, would come to be recognized as the worl...
• VITESSE: A New Font Family from H&FJ12 January 2010, 5:00 am
  Typeface: Vitesse H&FJ is delighted to introduce Vitesse®, a new slab serif in twelve styles. Slab serifs are one of typography’s most vibrant categories, yet they remain dominated by two ancient forms: the nineteenth century Antique, and the twentieth century Geometric. Both are vital and living genres — we’ve explored each of them, in our Sentinel and Archer type families — but what of the twenty-first century slab? Vitesse revels in the tension between organic letterforms and m...

Never mind that West 4th Street crosses West 10th, that those walking from Fifth Avenue to Third Avenue will seldom encounter Fourth Avenue, and that “North” in the New York sense differs from conventional "North" to the tune of 29°. It’s this kind of accuracy, transparency and accountability that makes New York the perf...
• Typographic Gifts for Designers, Part 1717 December 2009, 11:00 am
  I wonder what sort of psychological profile one could draw from my favorite childhood possessions. I neither played nor followed football, but clung to my NFL lunchbox that showed all the team helmets with their different insignia. I had no special interest in English History, but was fascinated by the chart in our living room that traced the succession of British monarchs from William the Conqueror to Queen Elizabeth II. A kindergarten teacher gave me a chart of rocks and minerals found in the ...

  "Modern Gaspipe" is the charming taxonomic name for this kind of letterform. We’ve explored the style in our Tungsten type family — itself a fine holiday gift at $99, ahem. But for those with a hankering for decor, the always fruitful Three Potato Four has this unlittle item for sale, a huge handpainted wooden figure three (34" / 86cm), perfect for your living room, studio, or threearium. Thanks to our designer Brian Hennings for finding this one: frankly I'm amazed that he hasn't had his fi...

Whatever delight I once took in acquiring a new piece of electronics has long been eclipsed by the responsibilities of dealing with its byproducts: its packaging, thankfully limited to recyclable cardboard and biodegradable packing peanuts, and also the carcass of the old device itself, which this year a local equipment recycler will be disassembling and recycling as responsibly as possible.

• 2.5 TB as the Next Step for 3.5" HD?8 February 2010, 11:09 pm
  Currently 3.5" HDs offer up to 2 TB of storage space. They are composed of 4 discs of 500 GB each. If in theory 5 discs could fit in the enclosure, to reach 2.5 TB, no manufacturer made this choice so far. Indeed, with the heat released by mechanical operations, it would impact reliability and life time. However, we should see 2.5 TB HD models soon according to a roadmap from TDK, one of the main manufacturers of HD heads. They have in development a head able to push capacity of each disc t...

This new format will support video with resolution reaching 8kx4K, but it also expects to directl...

The transistor in question is made up of a single d' layer of carbon atoms forced into a two dimension configuration in the form of a honeycomb. It was obtained starting from simple graphite (i.e. pencil lead). This transistor exceeds by far that of traditional silicon where it is impossible to exceed 40 GHz. indeed, in Graphène, the electrons move much more quickly. Currently, this type of transistor is ...
• A hybrid SSD-hard disk8 February 2010, 5:00 am
  For a moment the traditional manufacturers of hard drives thought of making hybrid hard drives containing, in addition to the platters for storage, some flash memory which could be used as a buffer and thus accelerate reading and writing. The idea was quickly abandoned, the cost of the FLASH forcing them to use only a small quantity that nevertheless increased the price of the discs without bringing significant real performances. It was in the same way for the experiments of Intel and of Microso...
• Apple, It Is Time to Correct Aiport Bugs7 February 2010, 11:08 pm
  Last October, Apple updated its Airport Extreme and Time capsule models to further improve performance. We have been testing both products and we could confirm the faster data transfer speed in optima conditions. However, it seems that many users are having problems with the 5 GHz network as reported on Apple forum: New Extreme (slow on 5 Ghz but NOT on 2.4Ghz?!?!?). If you remain very close to the station, performances are excellent, but they dramatically dropped as soon as you slight...

On the other hand, it is always possible to do it, for example, indicating the closest restaurant or service station. On an ethical point of view, there is no particular reason to block them. A localised advertizing is only a little bit intrusive and aggravating...

So, we did a small experiment with a MacBook Pro (2.4) with its default 250 GB Hitachi 5,400 rpm HD, offering max. 50 MB/s in reading/writing modes. We then removed the original HD and the optical drive to install two Intel SSDs x25-m and created a software-based RAID0 volume with both of them...
• Apple and Adobe: The Roots and Reasons Behind Today's Situation5 February 2010, 10:59 am
  One does not need to be a wizard or a medium to realize that the relationship between Apple and Adobe have slowly but surely switched from an undercovered to an opened conflict. This is especially true after the recent comments made by Steve Jobs during the introduction of the iPad, when he said that Adobe engineers were too lazy and that HTML 5 will take over Flash; clearly pouring oil onto the already burning fire.  In summary, Apple made it clear that Flash will never exist as such on th...
