Description

Have you ever wanted to make music but had no idea where to begin? 

We probably have a lot in common. Even though I grew up playing lots of different instruments and interested in listening to all musical genres, I never really understood how to take those musical skills and interests and create a song that I was proud of. I never even considered producing something in Logic Pro X or GarageBand because I didn't know where to begin.

My name is Derrick Mitchell, and I work as a Creative Director and Graphic Designer, but I LOVE music. I play electric and acoustic guitars in a church band on the weekends, and sometimes the drums and bass as well. While serving at the church, I've learned a ton about producing music from my friend, Solomon (Solo) Ray.

Solo has a pretty impressive resumé when it comes to musicians he's worked with and different albums that he has produced. Not only that, but his musical skills are incredible and he has performed on stages all over the world! 

I wanted to learn Solo's secrets about how to produce music in Logic Pro X so that I could build on the skills I already had and create my first track in Logic. I was able to convince Solo to help me produce this course and pull back the curtain on his creative workflow while producing songs.

Solo holds nothing back and shows you every little tip, trick, and secret he's learned from over a decade of producing music professionally.

This course is a great introduction for total beginners, but is laced with TONS of advanced techniques that even the most advanced Logic Pro X users will find helpful.

If you've ever wanted to dive into making music, then you definitely have to check out this course!

Hi! I am a music producer and music director based out of Montana. I predominantly produce, mix, and master in Logic Pro X, but I also enjoy using Ableton and Pro Tools. I started playing piano when I was a little kid (hated practicing then, but now I'm so thankful my parents made me do it anyway), got my feet wet in GarageBand around 12, and produced my first album in Logic at 16. I'm now 25 and have learned so much about the recording process, songwriting, mixing and mastering, and I can't wait to help you progress to the next step of your musical journey!
