Beginners and those who have a basic understanding of music production, who wish to gain the skills to independently write and produce music.
What can I expect?
During the course you will:
- Learn the ins and outs of Logic Pro including MIDI, synthesis, audio editing, plug-ins and shortcuts

Each day will start with live sessions and exercises that will give you an opportunity to get to know each other.

Participants will be encouraged to be creative and produce their own tracks on a daily basis, with the aim of having a final 3-min track by the end of the week.
