Pro tools 8 Tutorial - XPAND 2 - Pt 2

Here Jason De Wilde Head of Audio at the Australian Institute of Music presents another pro tools 8 micro lecture. This time he concentrates on the great pro tools 8 package which is Xpand2, in Part 1 he covered the basics for this great tool, here in Part 2 he focuses on layering techniques and more.

Pro Tools 8 comes with 5 brand new instruments (Xpand2, DB-33, MiniGrand, Vacuum, and Boom), as well as Structure Free. If you've owned earlier versions of Pro Tools, you've probably had Xpand! already... well, XPand2 is a serious upgrade to that already well-rounded instrument. Xpand2 has double the number of patches as XPand!, as well as an easier to use interface.

The Australian institute of Music.

Integration is the name of the game at AIM with six music departments on offer. Students focus on one major area of study but can integrate across other areas of study through a wide range of elective choices. AIM departments include; contemporary performance, music theatre, classical performance, composition and music production, audio technology and entertainment management, taught by some of the finest industry practitioners available in Australia.

So whilst a student may for example take audio as their major study, they can also choose to take units from any one of the other five major areas. In this way, students build a portfolio of music, audio, entertainment & business skills to create diverse career opportunities.

From AIM's annual showcase where students have the opportunity to perform on stage with full production to a full house, comes smaller creative projects where the journey of writing, producing and recording a song in the studio can be documented on video and placed on the web through AIMtv, as part of the AIM learning and artist development experience.

At the completion of two years of intensive study at AIM, students graduate with a Bachelor of Music degree majoring in one of six areas or a Bachelor of Entertainment Management. Equipped with state of the art Q Recording Studios, 300-seat concert hall, 60-seat intimate performance space, fully equipped Apple Mac labs, performing arts library and over 800 students, the Australian Institute of Music offers the complete educational experience.
