Demo Sessions
The microFusa Demo Sessions are demonstration sessions on techniques or products related to recording and music production. They are aimed at all types of audiences interested in music technology, computing, and audio creation and production.
These sessions are held at the microFusa sound school facilities (Barcelona or Madrid) and microFusa stores (Barcelona or Madrid) and will be taught by the school's own teaching staff, as well as by some external collaborators.
Access to the microFusa Demo Sessions is completely open and free for anyone interested, although the number of places will be limited by the capacity of the venue where they are held.

Elastic audio in Cubase SX, by Ramir Martinez (microFusa teacher)
** only in Barcelona **
Is it possible to work with audio files and tracks in the same way as if they were MIDI events or notes?
Can we change the tempo of an audio project and have the tempo of all audio tracks change as well?
Is it possible to include MIDI sequences in a musical recording that was not made with a click track?
All these questions have answers when we can stretch and compress time. Described with examples in this session, some typical cases of audio manipulation are analyzed to make it elastic over time in Cubase SX.
This Demo Session also serves as an introduction to the different subjects in the syllabus taught in the Advanced Music Production specialization offered within the Microfusa courses.
