Sampling technologies and loop-based music changed the way
of creating music. Just like the terms "producer"
and "live-act" replaced the relationship between
"composer" and "artist".
Lessons & Workshops
Learning music should be methodically supported by using
digital media while teaching and as a helping guide for
practicing.
Useful techniques like tempo shifting and looping parts
for training can be enhanced by giving precise hearing assistance,
focusing on single parts of the arrangement.
