In this video, Point Blank instructor and Ableton Certified trainer Thomas Glendenning takes a look at Ableton’s fantastic new Drum Bus feature and the many ways you can use it in your productions to enhance drum sounds. Thomas teaches Introduction to Music Production (Ableton) with us here in London which, as well as acting as a standalone course, is an integral part of our degree and diploma programmes, both in London and online.
Watch the video below to see Thomas take us through the features of Drum Bus, such as it’s in-built saturation, transient shaping and ‘Boom’ bass processing, as well as displaying what effect you can expect this to have on your sounds.
Want to learn how to use Ableton from expert instructors like Thomas? As well as the ITP course, we offer much longer and comprehensive courses, foremost among them our new BA (Hons) in Music Production and DJ Practice, and BA (Hons) in Music Production and Sound Engineering. You can also take the latter as an online degree from anywhere in the world. We offer courses covering production techniques like these at all of our schools, which are completed by Los Angeles, Ibiza and Mumbai. Any questions? Please get in touch.
