Music Theory - Rhythm Part 2 / 381

 In this course Jamie takes you through some fundamental music theory techniques including rhythm, meter swing, polyrhyhm and hyperbeat. 

Jamie,

Just want to start off by saying I really enjoy your music theory series. Your knowledge and input has been very helpful to me, thank you.

Question. In Tutorial 3 (Drums and Rhythm) video, you touch base on finding similar instruments in the same frequency. I have a lot of instrument packs. Is there a preferred method on searching kicks, snares, hi hats in the same frequency ?

Jamie, Fantastic set of tutorials. Clear yet full of usefull information, and great mixture of what to do and why to do it...both aspects needed in my opinon. Please produce more tutorials.

enjoyed the tutorials however found that due to the (in my opinion) frequent use of advanced terminology i was switching off and losing concentration

Attached file seems to be corrupt, please check.

Your voice reminds me of Johnny Knoxville.. Nice Videos!!

How do I create a master midi clip in which you speak of so that I can organize my sounds. Do you just create an empty midi channel and sort in blank notes manually?

Attached file is corrupt

Please fix attached file. Like others have said, the file is corrupt. Will move on from this section of the course with hopes to come back to it later.

For those having trouble with the course files, just download and extract and add the file extension (rename to .ALP)

Once again very good stuff, second time looking at this and great tha its Techno based

If this is what you call intermediate music theory classes then I need &#034Jedi Master&#034 music theory classes. Just sayin... I made beats like this when I started on Rebirth just from listening to a record. He sounds really smart though.

Great tutorial! Thank you!

I have been making music for a few years now… This course is still valuable… lots of info to pick up here. Very well presented and explained… I was famikiar with all concepts here but still gained a lot from the tutorials… i love how passionate James is… keeps it interesting

any additional Music Theory courses coming from this tutor ?

nothing planned at the minute from Jamie, but we will undoubtedly have further music theory courses on the site

Great course! A big highlight for me was exposing the actual beats that make up the “DAW view.” The kick that appears to take up an entire beat when viewed in the arrange window may only take up half that space, for example. And this introduces many more “empty” places where syncopated beats can be added that will have a nice effect. So simple and it’s explained well, but the concept is missing from so many other music production tutorials, well done!

Great tutorial! Thanks James Schmidt.

Short, sweet and to the point. Thanks for making this.

Great tutorial, I just wish the features of the downloadable project were such that Ableton Intro or Ableton Standard could load it, not everyone has the top tier Ableton software
