Everything You Need to Start Making Great Music Today!

In this class, we start with the very basics: What kinds of tools do I need to produce music? We explore the various tools, then we start to learn how to use them for making professional music. By the end of this class, you will be making your own tracks on your own computer (no matter if it is a mac or a pc!)

This course follows the tried-and-true curriculum that I've used for my Music Technology 101 class at my university position. I'm excited to be able to make it available to you, at 0.001% of the cost of a University class.

The goal of this class is for you to learn how to make original music on the tools you already have, or can get access to inexpensively.
