Our Music Production School Summer Camps have become popular for all age groups. You learn music production software inside out, then get to grips with synthesis and mixing, so by the end you will have a good understanding of programming drums, bass, editing vocals, sampling bits from other records, recording, mixing, creating your own unique sound, and get an insight into the music industry too. You will compose, mix and master your very own song, and by the end, it should be fit for the dance floor and/or radio!
Camp 1 is based in Ableton Live 10, and is more popular with DJs who want to make the leap and produce their own electronic music.
Camp 2 is based in Logic Pro, and is for aspiring singer/songwriters and producers of contemporary/pop music.
Students these days like to use their own laptops on our courses if they have them, so we have made space in our studios for people who wish to do just that, and altered the price structure keeping the course fee low, but have a supplement of $199 for those students who wish to hire a school iMac loaded with all the software required. Students with laptops need the latest version of their software installed and ready to go.
“I would recommend this to a friend because it teaches more than just the software”
