After teaching countless people how to use programs like Logic and Ableton, I’ve decided to give up. And before my competitors get too excited, let me explain what I mean by that. These programs are vast, and you can spend years learning how to use them.
I know because I have. And so whether you take my class or not, let me share some advice. You do yourself a disservice by trying to learn everything about the software at once.
It’s too much. Logic has a notation editor. 99% of you are never going to use it.
And I’d love to spend six months teaching everyone how to use Macs for Live, but that has no business living in an Ableton chorus where someone’s just trying to learn how to get their ideas out of their heads. So at Beat Kitchen, we do things a little differently. My goal in any DAW class is to get you out of that class as quickly as possible.
We want to get the training wheels off so you can start developing your ideas. You have the entire rest of our program to start running into the kind of problem sets that you’re going to need to solve later anyway. So the focus is workflow and how to get around in the software so we can start talking about music theory and audio effects and how to build better beats.
So if that sounds like a class for you, or if someone who belongs in a Beat Kitchen class, share this post.
