Apply nowTake your music to the next level
If you feel you’re proficient at most elements of writing and producing music but struggle on some concepts or want to learn how to polish your skills, these courses are aimed at you. You can select the topic/technique that you feel your production skills need strengthening in.
Then with your instructor, you can review your current knowledge and proceed to focus on your weaker areas to develop them into better sounding records. These sessions are intense and only recommended for the more proficient producer, but if the techniques are implemented it will result in you producing not only better quality music, but also faster.
