Being Bold Music Production:

Deja Vu by Olivia Rodrigo Cover

For their ‘Music Production: Being Bold’ lessons during the summer term Year 8 have been learning about recording and editing practices using the professional digital audio workstation ‘Logic Pro X’.

They began this cover of Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘Deja Vu’ by recording the backing track. Students identified instruments used in the original song and replicated these sounds using synthesis, ADSR envelopes and FX plug-ins.

After the sound design stage, the class worked to capture the instruments with a focus on signal flow, step input & audio I/O assignments. Chloe, Limoni, Ruby and Kaila then gave a brilliant vocal performance whilst Kacie and Sabrina engineered the takes. Kacie then edited the vocal performance using advanced audio manipulation techniques (e.g. Melodyne).
