Master Nebula with our comprehensive course for professional users. Transform your audio production through detailed lectures and practical insights into emulations and setup.
This course dives into Nebula, simplifying its complex tech for all users. With 22 lectures, it explores installation, GUI navigation, and effective mixing techniques, making it accessible for everyone who wants to level up their audio skills.
All the detailed information about using Nebula that the professional user demands
Nebula is famous for its amazing emulations of classic studio gear, but up until now it has been very hard work for the average user to get the most out of it.
Nebula uses unique and complex technology that has previously been understood by only a small number of dedicated computer audio geeks. Now at last this information is available for everyone in plain English!
Professional is the full version of the course and contains all the detailed information about using Nebula that the professional user demands. It contains all the lectures included in Starter and builds on this to provide all the specialist knowledge to transform your way of working with Nebula and the results you can achieve
The course is comprised of 22 lectures and will take approximately 2.5 hours to finish, and by the time you have completed it you will learn:
In the Welcome To the World of Nebula Section:
How Nebula's brute force emulation works and what it can and can't achieve
The different ways that Nebula can sample hardware and why we would use each of them
An overview of sampling using Nebula's NAT sampling software
How convolution impulse responses are used in reverb emulation
How sampling with Nebula differs from standard convolution
What the 'dynamic dimension' is and how Nebula can sample it
The limitations of Nebula's technology
In the Installation & Setup Section:
The difference between the 'Nebula' and 'Nebula Reverb' versions of the plug-in and which version you should be using
How to install and delete Nebula libraries easily
How Nebula's latency settings affect its sound and performance
How to Locate and edit the plug-ins XML files to customize your install
How to create multiple versions of the plug-in with different latencies
How to create alternative directories to store your Nebula libraries
How to add meaningful names to the default 3 character categories
How to add the ability to use TIMED kernels
How to adjust compressor look ahead time with AHEADLENGTH
In the Graphic User Interface Section:
How to easily change GUI parameters using buttons, sliders, keyboard input and the modifier keys
How to save a Program with a new name and change its category
All about RTE, The Flashing 'T', KERNELS:, MONO-L / STEREO and SPLITH / CLASSIC mode
About what the exact difference is between the FREQD and TIMED modes
About the kernel control grid and how SPLITH Works
About using an analyser and turning distortion kernels on and off
About what EVERY parameters on the global MAST page does in detail
In the Mixing With Nebula Section:
The basics of gain staging and understand how important it is in relation to Nebula
What good gain staging looks like
What exactly dBFS, RMS and dBu are
Why use -18dBFS instead of -20dBFS or another similar value
About using the 'magic' formula and measuring -18dBFS accurately using a free insert channel plug-in
About the accuracy and usability of Nebula's emulations
About how the core technology is used in preamps/consoles, EQ, reverb and compressors
About each category of program including examples of hardware types sampled, the general uses of each category and a review of their accuracy and usability
Every lecture starts by telling you exactly what you will learn in the lecture and ends with a detailed summary. These summaries are available as PDF files for you to download and print out. At the end of each section there are multiple choice questions to help consolidate your learning.
As an extra special bonus there is a full audio interview with Giancarlo Del Sordo (the creator of Nebula) included.

After leaving university in 1993 I embarked on a career as a musician. Throughout my twenties I wrote music and played up and down the country in many well known venues including the London LA2, Camden Underworld and the Cambridge Junction. After getting signed to Wasp Factory Recordings I also worked with and began recording and engineering other musicians as...
The only tutorial I've found online about Nebula. I'm not just rating this 5 stars for that reason though, this course explains stuff that I couldn't figure out on my own or either wasn't available in Nebula's literature, or was worded in a way that was to difficult to understand.
good info
Very good so far :)
Very comprehensive description of Nebula software and useful tips which help in getting the most out of the program.
I am a MAC user - the course only outlines Win...
Methodical and in depth review, yet very easy to follow. I actually found it a lot more interesting than I was expecting. Many thanks. Stratis R
Nebula Explained PRO is a MUST for all who wants to get maximum from Acustica Nebula.
It is about configuring the Nebula.
And most important - it is about "how to speed up Nebula".
Very detailed and easey to understand.
100% recomend!
I started using Nebula about 2 years ago. I have been recording at home since the early 90's. I've also got a degree in engineering. With Nebula - I was over my head. It's a complicated plug-in that sounds amazing, but is difficult to work with. I began searching for tutorials, etc, but found none. I even posted on the Acustica website asking for one over a year ago.
Needless to say when this course was released, I jumped on it. It was much more than I could have hoped for. It explains Nebula thoroughly - including how it works, and how to use it. It is an ABSOLUTE MUST for anyone starting out with Nebula, or those who have been using it but want to understand how to apply it affectively.
This course is well outlined, easy to follow, and thorough. I simply cannot say enough good things about it. Spend weeks or months trying to figure it out on your own - or take this course and dramatically reduce the learning curve.
A no brainer for anyone even considering it. I'd highly recommend the Pro version!!!!!

Wow. A LOT of time went into this course. Insider information. Wish there was an update for Nebula 4, but I got exactly what I bought - and more. I’m probably going to have to watch twice... he goes slow enough but there’s just so much here. Very high production values and great info!!
