Description
In this third and final module of the certificate of electronic music production, you will focus on the study and use of audio effects, both in terms of sound design and their application in mixing.
The course provides an in-depth review of the different families of audio processors and their parameters (EQ, compressors, reverberators, echo units, etc.), combined with auditory training and technical problem-solving activities that are commonly encountered in music production.
The course goes on to study and put into practice the mixing of musical themes, analysing commercial productions, and applying the techniques you have learnt in real mixing cases. This will allow you to develop the necessary skills to achieve a good balance in your mixes, accurately handling equalisation or compression, as well as the creative use of effects.
This module has a duration of one term (11 weeks). As it is an online course, all of the activities are carried out on our virtual campus, accessible from any personal device, whether it is a computer, tablet, or mobile phone, and in this way you can manage your time according to your needs and availability so as to have a satisfactory and complete learning experience.

Schedules
This course is developed entirely online, and represents a radically different experience from that offered by a face-to-face course since neither classmates nor teachers are located in the same space nor do they coincide at the same time.
All the activities, both individual and collective, are carried out in a virtual learning environment, which is moderated by a number of specialized teachers with extensive professional experience in the subjects taught. These teachers provide constant and dynamic support, ensuring a complete, stimulating, and satisfying learning experience. The communication with the educational center and with the teachers is carried out in two different ways, on the one hand (asynchronously), using the internal messaging system or the forums and, on the other, the synchronous chats (in the master classes).
Given that all activities are evaluated, it is essential for the student to maintain a firm and continuous dedication throughout the course, a commitment that will be reinforced and supported by the follow-up of tutors and the school itself.
