Introduction to Logic Pro X - Fundamentals of MIDI, Apple Loops, Level Balancing and Basic Effects

From 69 £ /h

Logic Pro is a powerful digital audio workstation (DAW) widely used for music production, recording, and sound design. In this introductory lesson, we will cover the basics of setting up a project, navigating the interface, and creating simple tracks.

We will start by setting up a project, adding Software Instrument and Audio tracks, and exploring Apple Loops for quick access to pre-made sounds. We'll also learn to record basic MIDI and audio, perform simple edits, and balance their mix using volume and panning. By the end of this lesson, students will have created a basic project they can save and export, providing a solid foundation for future work in Logic Pro.

I am an experienced electronic music producer and enthusiastic teacher with students of different levels.

I love sharing my knowledge and to inspire other producers and musicians. I like to focus on the individual skills and goals, and to make specific lesson plans based on each student needs (i.e. for beginners - have a full understanding of production techniques and software features / produce releasable tracks within 6 months; for advanced students - finding a signature sound, improving sound design and mixing skills)

Because of my expertise and versatility, I can teach many different styles of music. As an artist, I mainly focus on producing techno, IDM and house but I have a broad understanding of contemporary music and current trends because of my strong background as a drummer.

Music softwares are a good way of composing music.
Performing music is a good practice of creative arts and science.

Sound-Art is the visual and hearing of the making of music and artworks for it.

Learn drum kit from your home!

I am a London session based drummer and percussion and now teach online remotely from my studio to your home kit!

You don't need any special gear yourself - you don't even need a drum kit! We can work on coordination and timing through clapping and drum pad exercises.

I'm Andres, a music producer, new to this platform. I enjoy teaching and although my approach is more on the creative side, I will give you the necessary technical tools for you to develop an easy and fluent workflow. Logic Pro is one of the best and most complete Digital Audio Workstations out there. If your passion is creating music or sound, either as a career or a hobby, this is a course for you.
I offer one-on-one lessons where my goal is to show students of different ages and levels how to achieve their own, unique sound with the tools that the software provides. There will be different areas to focus depending on each student, but those include but are not limited to music theory for producers, audio engineering for producers, song structuring, beat-making and more.
I will accommodate to your level of experience/knowledge in order to deliver good and valuable information to you. I look forward to meeting you!
P.S: Contact me for schedule flexibility.

I currently offer teaching and mentoring in the following areas:

- Music/Audio Production

- Guitar Performance

- Music Theory

My methods are generally adapted to each individual’s needs and objectives, however, they do not include classical music training approaches, such as sight reading or formal classical music training. Instead, my approach focuses on developing an intuitive understanding of music, through understanding elements such as intervalic structures, mathematical permutations, analogies derived from other disciplines etc. The ultimate goal of my approach is to allow the individual to form a way of thinking, which will allow she/he to compose, produce or play ANY type of music.

I can guide to learn mathematics as per requirement, can teach the complete year and cover the syallabus for students. You can try 3 classes before you make your final decision and I am sure you would continue as soon as you will understand the easy technique I use.

Obtaining a good grade in A-Level/GCSE Mathematics is necessary to have a strong chance at attending an elite university in the UK however this can be hard to achieve through independent study and revision textbooks. My role as your A-Level/GCSE Mathematics tutor is to shore up misunderstandings in your knowledge, teach and contextualise new content through questions and position you in a direction to succeed in your upcoming exams.
I have achieved an A* in A level Mathematics and a 9 in GCSE and have attended one of the most prestigious sixth forms in the country for mathematics, Kings math's school and have the knowledge and tools to assist you in your academic journey.

Do you want to make your own mixtapes? Keep a playlist in your pocket at all times?

I can set you up to make your own tapes which play back perfectly, going through the basics of deck maintenance, speed calibration, belt changing, head alignment etc.

Conversely if you want to make a mixtape but you’re lacking the equipment, reach out for one session and I can do it on your behalf! Just provide the blank cassette!

My teaching approach is inspired by Paul Harris’ “Simultaneous Learning” and Phyllis Young’s “Playing the String Game”. I combine games and natural instinct to help my students understand playing the cello without overly-complicated instructions.

With 4 years of experience, I’m confident in taking on both young and adult students, from beginners all the way to diploma level, guiding their journey throughout. Learning the cello should be both fun and rewarding.

I tailor my lessons according to each students’ interests, strengths, and weaknesses in order to help them realise to their full potential. I believe in well-rounded development for musicians, providing musicianship, aural, historical knowledge, on top of playing the instrument

Feel free to get in touch to discuss and I’m happy to offer any help.
