The Triple Threat Artist

• Fox posted a link to his new album and a promotional video
• Zion shared a link to how to master audio for streaming services and the concept of LUFS.
• More steps were taken by students to listen to lectures and apply their new knowledge in exercises and groove making strategies.
• Office Hours were amazing. Blake, Chelsey, Juli and Sem got on. We caught up on each other's projects, we talked a lot about getting messy and not being afraid of getting our hands dirty when it comes to music production. There was a lot of encouragement to practice production techniques and tools for at least two hours a week. We also talked a lot about Neutron 2 and Ozone 8 again for mixing and mastering. Total Balance Control baby!
• Allison shared some frustration about vocal production and how to make vocals sound better and more suitable for synch opportunities.
• Zion shared a link to How MiDI works, and reminded students to dig into learning how signal flow works with MIDI to better utilize Virtual Instruments.
• This next week's office hours will be held on Tuesday at 10am, where we will deconstruct famous production of hit songs, as well as get questions resolved for any production projects students are working on.
• If you are in the Access Course and have interest in joining the Triple Threat Artist group, please let Zion know, we've got an amazing discount waiting for you.. Now $49/m, with coupon code 49FORLIFE.
