Pro Juice TV

About this original series

Pro Juice is a presenter driven TV series about music, video and new media for guerrilla producers and those who dabble. Pro Juice is fast paced, shoot from the hip, music video style programming. Professionally produced, but alternatively pro-juiced, original stories cut hard to provide informative and entertaining viewing. With a high use of bold design and new music, Pro Juice visually and sonically represents the medium it is dissecting. Pro Juice is presented by Melbourne based music producer Arlo Picasso (aka Smile On Impact). His bold and charismatic delivery personifies the essence of this new generation of alternative media producers.

    • Side Chain Compression

      Arlo explores the fundamentals of side chain compression, a dynamics process that can make your tunes 'pump'! A side chain, in biochemistry, is a component of a molecule that is attached to a core structure. But this isn't biochemistry. When WE talk about side chain, we talk about a signal routing method, mostly employed to activate an effect from a separate channel. This means for example, you can use the dynamics of one channel to activate a compressor on another. It's used in abundance with...
