Learn how to set up and use Rewire instruments, and get acquainted with the synths in Pro Tools 9, including the Boom drum module, the DB-33 organ, and the Mini Grand piano. Explore Structure Free (a sample player), Xpand2 (a multi-timbral virtual synth), and Transfuser (a virtual synth-workstation). Using sounds from these modules, host Andrew Eisele builds up an arrangement combining analog and electronic drum tracks, working with loops and groove clips, and using the onboard audio and MIDI editing tools, sound-processing effects, and utility plug-ins. In the mixing segment, Andrew explains advanced production techniques such as setting up busses, inserting dynamic and real-time effects, writing automation and applying effects, both to tracks and to the stereo bus during mastering that will give your tracks a professional edge.
