Increased Control's Free Mini Course

Increased Control (Giovanni Torricelli) is a Florence-born, Berlin-based sound designer and composer known for immersive, dystopian soundscapes, with releases on VūMantra Records, Brutal Forms, Subsist Records, and Blame Records.

Rooted in his lifelong fascination with sci-fi, dark cinema, video games, and post-apocalyptic atmospheres, this free course translates his artistic approach into practical production techniques. 

It focuses on gaining precise control over sound, dynamics, and space through gain staging, dynamics processing, modulation, side-chaining, effects, and automation, prioritising intention over presets.

The course covers practical techniques for shaping audio using gain staging, dynamics processing, modulation, side-chaining, effects, and automation, with an emphasis on intentional decision-making rather than presets. It is aimed at producers who want cleaner mixes, tighter grooves, and more deliberate creative control in their workflow.

Level: Intermediate to advanced professional producers.

Subtitles available in: English (English), German (Deutsch), Portuguese (Português), Spanish (Español), French (Français), and Italian (Italiano).
