This class is a short window into the world of being a music producer. I'll go over my top 5 secrets for music production both as problems and solutions. If you are looking for inspiration, ideas to get you out of rut, or just some advice, this is a great place to start.
But don't expect to learn a new technical method for mic placement, producing beats, or side-chaining. This class is more about the state of mind that one needs to have to survive the world of music production.
In this class I'll address these main subjects:
Why is it that your music doesn't sound as good as the music you hear on the radio/playlist/stream?
How can you create something when you don't have very good equipment?
What is the best way to master software like Ableton Live 11, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Pro Tools, Reason, Studio One, Bitwig Studio, Cubase, and the others?
Do no need a BA in music production and sound engineering to make great music? (Spoiler: NO.)
If you don't know me, I've published a lot of classes here. Music engineering courses, music producing courses, DJ courses, and some of the top online sound production courses available today. Those classes have been really successful (top sellers, in fact!), and this has been one of the most requested classes that my students (over 1,000,000 of them) have asked for. I'm really excited to finally be able to bring this to you.
My Promise to You:
I am a full-time music producer, composer, and Educator. If you have any questions please post them in the class or send me a direct message. I will respond within 24 hours. And if you find this class isn't for you, I am more than happy for you to take advantage of the 30-day money-back guarantee. No questions asked.
What makes me qualified to teach you?
In addition to being a composer and educator, I also have a Ph.D. in music, I am a university music professor, and have a long list of awards for teaching.
But more importantly: I use this stuff every day. I write music professionally, I am an active guitarist, and I stay on top of all the latest production techniques, workflows, and styles. As you will see in this class, I just love this stuff. And I love teaching it.
Let's get started!
See you in lesson 1.
All best,
Jason (but call me Jay...)
