On August 2nd, Omni Sound Project is partnering with DistroKid to present the Preparing Your Music for Distribution Intensive. Founded in 2013, DistroKid distributes approximately one-third of all new music in the world. They have built their business on providing musicians, managers and record labels with online tools and services that are innovative, easy-to-use, and affordable. More than 2 million artists rely on DistroKid, including hobbyists, up-and-coming musicians, top influencers, and international stars like 21 Savage, Ludacris, Janine, Will Smith, and JESSIA, to name a few. DistroKid’s expanding array of services include music distribution, monetization, metadata customization, storage, and promotion. DistroKid’s small staff, coupled with largely automated backend, has enabled DistroKid to process nearly 20 million songs, while simultaneously providing fast, personal & friendly customer service to artists of every size.

In the four-week course, taught by Lindsey Kappa, we'll discuss how to independently prepare your music for distribution, including creating proper mixes to send to a master, understanding the mastering process, preparing your songs for a distributor, and navigating a distribution service.

Class size is limited and questions and interaction are encouraged. Omni Online classes are open to all genders and all skill levels are welcome. All participants will receive a 30% discount on an annual membership to DistroKid.

On June 12th, Omni Sound Project is partnering with Novation to present the Sound Design with Synthesis Workshop. Novation is a British company designing innovative tools for electronic music-makers. Novation specialises in designing synthesisers, grid-based and keyboard controllers and grooveboxes – technology that translates ideas into reality, channelling artistic energy to create new music. Its Launchpad range of grid-based controllers continues to fundamentally shape the electronic music of tomorrow. From the serious hardware-oriented music-maker looking for new inspiration, to electronic music fans looking to start a journey into making their own tunes, Novation seeks to inspire.

Omni Sound Project workshops are designed to allow participants to explore a topic more deeply and collaborate on a working project to gain real world experience. In this hands-on event, composer Meghan Rose Scott will guide students in an exploration of using synthesis for sound design. 

In the first half of the workshop, Meg will review the basics of synthesis and its common tools. She will then teach students how to create a “sound palette”, take inspiration from other sounds, recreate sound effects, and experiment with plugins.

In the second half of the workshop, students will collaborate on using sound design to score a film scene using the Novation Peak. As always, collaboration will take place in a welcoming, encouraging atmosphere and participation is always voluntary.

Omni Online classes are open to all genders. This class requires attendees to have a basic understanding of sound design and using synthesizers. Users of any DAW are welcome.
