My name is Roman and I have been a composer of electronic music for about ten years. A multi-instrumentalist, I began my musical adventure by playing the guitar and then the piano. After obtaining my Brevet d'Études Musicales, I trained in Computer-Assisted Music (MAO), composition, audio mixing and mastering techniques. I work on Ableton Live software. Today, as an artist-author, I regularly partner with other artists and contribute to a wide variety of live performance and music-for-image projects. For the 2024-2025 season, I am participating in several artistic residencies and stage performances.

Are you stuck and often having trouble finalizing a song? Do you want a clear and structured follow-up without stuffing yourself with daunting manuals, confused youtube tutorials or overpriced training? If you recognize yourself in these questions, I suggest you accompany you in the vast world of audio-digital and music production in home studio. Because yes, nowadays, you can do everything from home, from the idea of ​​a song to its distribution on streaming platforms. But on the other hand, despite the increasingly efficient hardware and software innovations, it is very difficult to find your way around, especially when you are just starting out.

Because it is important to familiarize yourself with the tool as best as possible and not to lose motivation in the face of what can look like a "gas factory" all in all quite intimidating for a novice in the matter. This revolves around the following themes: - Quick handling of any virtual instrument (VST Synth, sampler) - How to record: your voice, external sounds, any other instrument (choice of microphone and placements, stereo, what to consider, mistakes to avoid ...) - Compose a first song quickly - Musical composition (tone, rhythm, melody and chord construction) - Audio processing adapted to sound design or mixing (EQ, Compression, Reverb, Distortion, Sidechain, layering, automations...) - Post-production (Mixing & Mastering): depending on your level, Introduction to these trades: What sets it apart from production? Awareness of studio acoustics Know how to read and interpret a waveform and frequency spectrum Learn critical listening More advanced course: work methodology, level management, Loudness, Mid / side, referencing The benefits of medium-term support: - obtaining commercially viable professional quality music, whatever your initial background and musical style - greater clarity and autonomy in your future choices: you will be able to ask yourself the right questions - an organization in all circumstances to remain productive and without inspiration breakdown - and, overall, a progression in your artistic journey.
