PROGRAM

Our curriculum guides you through the creative journey of discovering your own sound and developing it into a unique body of work. You will learn valuable techniques as you compose a portfolio of original tracks. We begin with the basics of production and studio etiquette and immediately follow it up with DAWs (Ableton & Protools). We then delve into the depths of MIDI sequencing & editing. While learning to use it, you will acquire production skills that can be applied to a wide variety of applications from songwriting, to studio production, to laptop DJ’ing.
