About
The primary focus of the workshop will be on Mr. Bill's technical approach to the creation of his Apophenia project; a step by step breakdown of his latest IDM album; and the integration of modular gear - primarily the Eurorack gear family.
The workshop will also focus on post production processes, with Bill offering insights into acting as his own mixing engineer, and a detailed guide to the ins and outs of mastering one’s own tracks.
Throughout the session Bill will also cover a wide range of key processes, plug-ins and vital production tips.
