Logic Pro X Melodic Techno Template | EDM Sessions Tutorial EP119

Logic Pro X Melodic Techno Template

For episode 119 we will make a Melodic Techno song in Logic Pro X using only internal plugins and audio processors.

We begin from absolute scratch using no loops or MIDI! To kick this one off we create a low thumpy bass line using the keyboard musical typing. After recording our MIDI we process and engineer the sound to fit our idea of techno music production.

Afterward we work on the percussion, some sound design is done to the elements so we get the feel we are looking for. Once we laid the percussion groove we moved on to the melodic part of our techno song with a Brass sound. Recording a simple midi we then add some automation to the reverb effect to create extra movement and a cool transaction effect.

Next up we record an hypnotic arp based on a simple chord we created from the root key of our song. We add some automation and work out the sound design to add this one to the mix to perfection. We also add sidechain compression to complete this element.

Adding extra sound fx and melodic elements lend us a good progression and full on melodic techno vibe.

We complete this episode by adding a simple lead and working on the mix and arrangements.
