Gary Hiebner

Who Am I

I'm a sound designer and music composer from South Africa, and my passions are music making, and teach others how to make music.

My Experience

I've been working in new media such as music and sound for TV and online games for the last 15 years. In these years I've worked through a multitude of different audio software, and through this found a passion for teaching how to use the different type of audio software that is available on the market. 

What I Teach

I'm a firm believer that audio software has its place in the creative field and using them as tools you can get different results which you might not have ever imagined. I wish to show you how to get the most out of these audio applications so that you can produce and expand on your musical ideas.

I really enjoyed this class and learned a lot! The instructor was helpful, interesting, and easy to understand. My only warning is if you are really new to music production (like I am) and not moving from another DAW, you might have to google some of the terminology and vocabulary that comes with this kind of new skill. Would definitely recommend this to others though!

Yes so far, some techniques fly by a little fast insofar as I can't synch some shortcuts on my Mac for whatever reason which causes me to rewind, but I'd be doing that anyway until processes become more intuitive. I'm using an older iMac with High Sierra and recently upgraded my free version of Studio One 3- to S1.5/Pro so it might help as a reference point to know what hardware and software versions you're using and what if any tips would be different for an older set up like this one. But seriously, this is fantastic content!

It very Good real give you a easy way to learn the program

By David Lormor on 12/6/2020

Early part of the course is pretty much just a rehash of everything in the free course. Definitely got into some interesting techniques with using MIDI, Melodyne, etc. but I feel like it would've helped to have more time diving in depth into core parts of the software such as the metronome, song info such as key and time signature, etc.

So far so good.

By Keith Hodgson on 11/23/2020

Going way too fast.

My second go at this class. Learning more this time around.

By John L Douglas on 11/8/2020

I am familiar with some of Presonus Studio One, but wasn't aware of some of the setting procedures and the benefit of adjust on the fly going back if needed, using the software amp simulators. Great things to know!

Perfekt!
