Description

Is this course for you??  Check out these reviews from recent students-

"Wow. I just learned more in 15 minutes than I did in an entire semester of a digital music class I took in college."  -Jordan Miller

"I rarely leave reviews for anything but I had to leave one for this course!  I've always wanted to record my music but thought it was too complicated... This course helped me get past those misconceptions and I am now recording all the time with ease... This instructor is easy to follow and really funny which makes it fun to watch. And the quality of these video lessons are incredible... I would recommend it to anyone looking to grow in recording their own music through GarageBand." -Austin St.Laurent

"Very informative, practical, easy to understand, funny and it's getting me excited to write music!" -Sam Masterson

"Great course on Garageband and thorough introduction to modern music production techniques." -George Theotokis

"Hands down the best introduction to GarageBand out there. Dean takes it from the basics, but fills in enough detail to keep the course engaging and inspiring even if you have a little experience with the program already. He has a really fun teaching style, which makes for an entertaining as well as informative course. Probably the best thing about it is the fact that there are lots of examples of real songs Dean has written and produced in GarageBand. These aren't just great for demoing GarageBand techniques, but they're also pretty inspirational as jump boards for your own songwriting too. Really happy with the course - recommend it wholeheartedly for anyone just starting out, or returning to GarageBand after a long time away!" -Richard West-Soley

Good match indeed. The explications are very clear and that's important for me as absolut beginner. And Dean has also a fun way to interrupt the course, so my brain doesn't get knots for thinking too hard. And I get results very soon and also a feeling of success and that's important too.
