Day 4 - Knowledge Transfer

And, yes, there were still more lectures about the history of Hip Hop and the history of rhythmic music. In addition we talked a bit about connectors and signal flow; inputs, outputs, thru-puts, crossfades, etc. The kids have been great. They've been real troopers, but I know they're more than ready to get into the hands on phase. And I can't say that I blame them. Well kids, if you're reading this blog you'll be glad to know that in the next session I will begin the demonstrations of the Sony Acid software. It is the software that will awaken the inner musician of you all.

But we're not done with classroom instruction yet. You've got lot of terms and keystrokes to learn.

I'm excited about this course. It is a labor of love and an honor to be a part of the Hip Hop: Art, Science and Business class. We are about to set the music education world on its ear.

Through much struggle, introspection and trial and error I have found that software (like Sony Acid) has refined the process. Virtuosity is at hand. Wherever there's a PC, there's an orchestra.

Stay in Tune.
