Course — Miami

Ableton Producer Program | Miami

This program has been designed for aspiring producers wanting to get serious with Ableton Live Suite and provides 120 hours of extremely high quality training and mentoring. Students will work on creating and refining their own release-worthy compositions whilst working towards their certificate during a 6-level music production program.
Students will cover sampling, audio manipulation techniques and advanced synthesis to build upon their existing musical and production chops. Also covered will be an expansion of their knowledge of Ableton Live. This approach perfectly showcases how to use your DAW effectively and efficiently. Next up is a thorough exploration of track analytics to enable understanding of the professional techniques used to make your favorite songs. We get stuck into the how’s of music production courtesy of dynamic hands-on exercises.
“I needed to brush up on something, so I called Garnish, as they have the best instructors” – Jamie Jones
The Program has been very much designed with the beginner in mind, as well as people who have a basic grounding in using Ableton at home. It’s for people who want to produce quality music from scratch, with like-minded groups of no more than 8 people in an intimate and nurturing environment. Emphasis is placed on fun (the best way to earn!) and not on competition. Discover qualities that distinguish us
Thanks to our exclusive licensing partnerships, we have assembled a range of specialized assets: synthesizers, effects, and samples for Garnish students. These instruments and sounds allow us to teach producers, side by side, using the same sets of expanded resources. Our constantly evolving license-partners and content producers add thousands of dollars to the value of our Producer and Academy courses. Many of these products are yours to keep. Others are free to use while you learn and are then eligible for exclusive upgrades at a fraction of their regular price.
We have our very own boutique sample label. Garnish students get all of our packs (mostly written and produced by Garnish instructors) for free, and an exclusive pack just for Garnish students not sold on the site! It’s recorded individual keys from Mark Ronson’s Mellotron M4000D, which our label chief Zack Johnson meticulously recorded in Mark’s studio in Hollywood. Thank you Zack and Mark!

Testimonials

What our students say.

If you're trying to establish connections with local artists that have made a name for themselves in LA (the instructors) than this is a great program to join. You get to talk with them about their personal experiences and get a lot of really good inside tips about production from a professional point of view. Highly recommended. Not just to learn, but to make connections.
