About the site

minimize

Hi and welcome. Sound Guru is a site about making music - primarily electronic music in Logic Pro, but we are beginning to make resources for other DAWs and styles too.

We go the extra mile. As well as showing you what all the buttons and knobs do, we get our hands dirty with practical sound-design workshop videos.

Tutorials sold as pure movie files. You own them forever. Playable on iPhones and iPads with no special software.

Modular pricing. All tutorials and some of the sound packs are divided up into smaller segments, which can be purchased separately. Only buy what you need.

More coming soon...

Stay tuned for more tutorials and sound packs, coming soon!

If you'd like to get infrequent updates (never more than once a month) about new tutorials as they are released, you can sign up to the newsletter.

If you'd like to suggest ideas for new tutorials, get in touch via the contact page.

Thanks!

Ultrabeat: Drum Sounds & Beat Creation

Ultrabeat is a fearsomely powerful drum machine, which can act as a sampler or a drum synth for making your own custom sounds.

Unfortunately, with so many features, its faceplate can look pretty intimidating. We delve deep to learn how all its features work, so you'll be producing banging beats and delicious grooves in no time.

In additional modules we'll then get into the nuts and bolts of drum synthesis, with lots of practical video workshops.

Analog Synths: Sampler Instruments

Two packs, making up 70 exquisitely detailed sampler instruments made with the Moog Voyager and Minimoog Model D analog synths.

The sounds are highly versatile, and will work in many different kinds of track. They are also very expressive, with multiple velocity layers that give access to many different tones within each instrument.

If you want a way to get some warm, fat analog character into your tracks without spending thousands, look no further. EXS24 and Kontakt versions supplied.

Banging Bass: Logic Synth Sounds

30 channel strip settings for Logic Studio, delivering thumping low end thrills for modern dance music and dubstep.

At the heart of each of these sounds lies a custom-designed synth sound using Logic’s native synthesizers. To this is added a carefully constructed fx chain to make bass that really pumps.

These sounds have been designed for dynamism and dancablilty, and work with any Logic Studio setup. Included are 2 Logic project files that show how to put the sounds to use.
