This week here at Sonic Academy we have something pretty special for you, as we welcome back sound design guru and Mau5trap artist Dom Kane - and this time he's showing us how to make his latest release 'Structures' from the ground up.

All the samples From Jay-z 4:44 - 23 chops.

Ableton Live 10 comes with several different compressor plugins that each have different features and capabilities. Understanding the differences and similarities between them will allow to use each much more effectively.

Pretty much every DAW comes with stock Equalizer plugins that you can use straight out of the box – and Ableton Live is no exception. All Ableton users have access to two simplistic, powerful EQ plugins that can be extremely useful if you know how to use them.

Welcome to FRICTION world. FRICTION applies the Sound Dust aesthetic to U-He's amazing analogue softsynth DIVA and brings you 170 presets that look for beauty and cinematic atmosphere in filth and wrongness.

Strings that soar, woodwinds that dance, brass that commands and a full symphony orchestra of sounds at your fingertips — all expertly performed with musical articulations for real music played by real musicians. From flowing legatos to animated pizzicatos, from aggressive spiccatos to elegant staccatos, from the most subtle pianissimo to the most triumphant fortissimo and more, Miroslav Philharmonik 2 is a sweeping vision from a master artist embodied in a new virtual instrument that brings the orchestra to life.

Emulating the artists that inspired us in our many music-making ventures is as much about rekindling those feelings as it is knowing how the sounds were created. In our cover feature this month we show you how to get impossibly close to the sonic signatures left by your musical heroes. Continuing the theme we present our newest feature ‘Recording Spotlight,’ where we speak to Peter Franco, engineer on Daft Punk’s Random Access Memories, and gain insight into the complex, painstaking work that went into creating this modern classic. Additionally, we sit down with dance-music producer Stefano Ritteri and rising UK production star Rhiannon Mair, get into the meat of Cubase 9.5 and get hands-on with all the latest gear, tech and software. We hope you enjoy the issue…
