Abstract:

Advancements in digital technology require artists and music students to possess the ability to utilize technology in the music arrangement process. This community service initiative aimed to enhance participants' knowledge, skills, and creativity regarding music arrangement using Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs). The activity involved 30 participants, primarily Music Education students from the University of Lampung. The methodology comprised lectures, demonstrations, hands-on practice, mentoring, discussions, project presentations, and evaluations. The curriculum covered arrangement concepts, digital music and DAWs, the application of rhythm and melody, virtual instruments, as well as mixing, mastering, and audio exporting. The results indicate that the workshop provided practical experience and skills in using digital technology to develop music arrangements while fostering participant creativity. This initiative is expected to support creative independence and strengthen the creative music ecosystem in Bandar Lampung City.
