A really good course for getting standard house sounds with Logic. A few notes for people trying it out in 2024. When using Ultrabeat with Logic 10.7.4 (and presumably later versions too), there are a few differences nowadays. The main issue I had was that when I load Ultrabeat, it doesn't load with the default kit shown on the video, so I had to search around for sounds. Also, Ultrabeat only allows you to change volume of individual sounds with the scroll wheel of the mouse nowadays. For the M1 organ sound, you can use the B3 organ, but download the EVB3 set of presets from earlier Logics (can find these online on forums) and use the 'House Bass' preset.

Awesome!

An excellent course. If you haven't made a house track before, follow along and you'll be making jams in no time.

Maybe little info for already pros and house music heads, but this was quite helpful to me not knowing well about house music in general.

For someone not so familiar with house music, this is a fantastic course on how to build a slamming track in a short time. Along the way, the instructor gives great tips on instrument placement, side-chaining, and song construction all the while he is building his track from scratch.

It's always a pleasure watching Olav work. He is a master of house music and an expert in mixing, audio, production, and DAWs (Logic in this video.) In this course, he walks one through the construction of a house track. He makes it seem simple, and on one hand it is. Kick, hats, claps, snares, percussion, bass, organ, pianos. There's a lot for the beginner to get out of this as it shows what elements go into a track, how a pro uses Logic, and how everything works together. This tutorial also provides an extremely valuable lesson in showing one does not need expensive third party plugins to get a great sounding track. With a couple of exceptions everything is done with stock logic tools. On the other hand, getting a track to sound good and cohesive isn't so simple, even if Olav makes it seem that way. This is where the course may be of benefit to the medium-to-advanced producer. How does Olav manage to get everything sounding so good? It's not a lot of plugins - mostly standard ones. EQ, Overdrive, Compression, Tape Echo, and Space Designer - but he knows exactly how to use them - and it's very valuable to see how he does this. EQ cuts/boosts here and there. Compression, sometime sidechained. Overdrive (Logic's underrated plugin). These small things about how he decides to apply and when mean a lot. Even pro's like watching other pro's work as there is always something to be picked-up, either workflow or technique or something else. A great course. Straightforward, explained clearly, moves at a good pace, very useful. Instructional and inspirational. Olav is an incredible teacher and hopefully he continues to make videos sharing more of his knowledge.

Great course, with very useful information and a very clear teaching. the examples are very simple and very well explained.
