Groove3 Creating a Lofi Remix Explained TUTORiAL

If you're looking to start producing lofi-sounding productions, this lofi production video course is a must-see! Studio production expert Gary Hiebner covers a multitude of tips, ideas, and techniques for recasting your track with a lofi sound, adding the vibe and character associated with this popular genre in a completely transformative way. You'll learn about lofi sound design, processing, tweaking chord progressions and melodies, and much more. These videos are for users with some basic mixing experience.

Also, for these videos Gary uses Studio One for the DAW, its stock eqs, compressors, reverbs, and bit crusher plugins, as well as Impact, Mai Tai, and Presence virtual instruments. The only 3rd party plugin used was iZotope's free Vinyl plugin. With that said, you can use your DAW plugins and instruments to achieve similar results, so don't let that stop you from learning from this great, in-depth course.

Gary begins the course by briefly explaining what will be covered and providing a working definition of lofi and its general characteristics. He then gives you a preview of the song used throughout the tutorial and the final loif remix that you'll be creating together. You'll then learn some strategies for analyzing a chord progression and making it a bit complex to better fit the genre, along with converting the melody line to MIDI for later use.

Next, it's on to the drums, where Gary will show you how to create a hip-hop-style beat to form the foundation of our new lofi aesthetic. Also discover the various types of processing that help lend the drums the appropriate vibe and flavor. Then you'll explore the various types of keyboard sounds used for the remix, including piano, Rhodes, and vintage-style synths, as well as the effects to use to process them.

Gary teaches you much more throughout the rest of the course, including adding a humanizing quality to MIDI instruments (adjusting note velocities and rhythmic precision), adding melodic instruments (transposition, processing, etc.), adding noise and ambience (vinyl effects, random noise with a noise oscillator on a synth), side-chaining techniques (pumping effects), final mix tips, and more!

Lofi is all about mojo and mood, and Gary lays out proven, easy-to-apply ideas and concepts that will transform your production and mix to make it sound like it belongs in the genre. The individual lofi Remix video tutorial descriptions will provide more information on the contents of each, so you can better understand the knowledge you'll be gaining with this course.
