Internationally
recognized music technologist Craig
Anderton teaches this intense one
day (9 hour) course covering all the
essentials of loop-based music, from
creation to composition. This class
is designed for engineers and musicians
who want to understand looping from
the ground up, as well as those familiar
with loops but who want to expand their
skills and self-sufficiency.
"All About
Looping" is a goldmine of information
about all aspects of loops and loop-based
music, and is essential for those
working in today digital music media,
whether for purely musical or audio-for-video
applications. Students will come
out of the class able to create their
own loops, optimize commercially-available
loops, and most importantly, apply
them in musical, cutting-edge ways.

DNA support the format
- Tweaking
sample CD loops for optimum time-stretching
- Editing
