REQ: GROOVE3 - Sampling Techniques for Modern Musicians

In Sampling Techniques for Modern Musicians, Yeuda Ben-Atar, also known as Side Brain, takes you into the always-innovative, often-revolutionary, sometimes-controversial world of this now-essential audio practice. From basic fundamentals such as “What is a sampler?”, “How do we use a sampler?”, to the broadest and most complicated questions, “How do we sample musical instruments?”, “What and when should we sample?”, this course serves as a guided exploration of the diverse equipment and methods that make much modern music possible, teaching you to create and employ your own samples along the way.

A multi-instrumentalist with experience in virtually every genre, Yeuda permeates his pedagogy with an infectious enthusiasm for music and those who create it. His work as an instructor, musician, and producer endow him with a unique perspective on how we can best engage with and learn about sampling. Sampling Techniques for Modern Musicians is the perfect primer for anyone with a vested interest in music-making, especially through sampling!
