This online course is perfect for beginners and experienced audio editors alike. Master the essential skills to finish your audio projects faster and streamline your workflow. We'll cover audio file management, syncing audio recordings, and collaboration techniques – all explained with clear instructions and helpful worksheets.

This course focuses on the foundational skills of audio editing, not mixing or mastering. You won't need to worry about plugins! Instead, you'll develop powerful audio editing habits, build clean organization skills, and establish a solid foundation for any audio project.

What You'll Learn:

We'll use both Ableton Live 10 and Logic Pro X to edit instrument recordings from a funky dance song, "Funky Dance Moves," by Mantravine. You'll learn to:

• Build a reusable template for efficient workflows
• Master essential key commands
• Achieve clean audio editing and organization of audio files
• Combine audio in various ways
• Sync melodies and transfer recordings to other software

The underlying concepts are universal and applicable to most DAWs with similar functionality to Ableton and Logic. While the course uses these specific programs, you can adapt the techniques to your preferred DAW.
