Pro producer guide, part 5: advanced synth tips

MusicRadar has, once again, teamed up with Steinberg and top Cubase expert and producer Bruce Aisher for a new series of videos. Here, we'll be looking at creating a track from start to finish.

We've already looked at how to record edit and mix 'real' sounds (including vocals), but now it's time to move onto synths, using both the instruments that come built into Steinberg's Cubase and some external hardware.

For the rest of this 10-part series, in association with Steinberg, check out the hub page.
