Intro to Ableton: Synthesis & Sound Design (with Subalias)

In this workshop we will introduce you to basic synthesis concepts and sound design techniques. We will break down the anatomy of a software synthesizer, exploring different kinds of oscillators, filters, and modulation sources. Then we will take what we have learned about the synthesizer to explore some sound design techniques to make specific sounds.

Mitchell Owens (a.k.a. Subalias) is a guitar player, sound designer, and electronic composer/producer from Durham, NC. He attended Berklee College of Music right here in Boston and has over 5 years of experience with Ableton Live producing and performing music under the moniker Subalias, as well as doing sound design and soundtrack composition for independent films and animations. Mitchell’s music blends the organic and synthetic for a balanced fusion inspired by sample based Hip­Hop, Downtempo, House, Funk and R&B. He believes in freedom of creation and expression and likes to cater to students’ specific needs in order to teach them the proper skills and techniques needed to achieve their musical goals.
