Bring the music you want to write; the keyboard skills come as you go
Pairs with
Any production course - these are the notes you send the synth
It's all very well knowing how to make a synth sound great, but most musicians would argue that the notes you send to it are much more important. It's not a competition, but you should really have a good idea of both if you wish to take giant leaps in the direction of producing the music you love.
Our Miami classes for the Composition Class are small and hands-on, taught at our studio by producers active in the city's electronic, Latin and hip-hop scenes. If you would rather learn from home, the same sessions run live online with the same instructors and the same class size, using our specialist music collaboration software, Muse.
