I was recently named a semifinalist for the Grammy Foundation Music Educator of the Year award due to my in-person classes at the university. I am now bringing those classes to Skillshare in an online format to reach more students.
For years I have been teaching music production in the university classroom. These classes I'm doing for Skillshare use the same curriculum I've used in my college classes for years, at a fraction of the cost. I believe anyone can learn music production, and cost should not be a barrier. I was recently named a semifinalist for the Grammy Foundation Music Educator of the Year award due to my in-person classes at the university. I am now bringing those classes to Skillshare in an online format to reach more students. In this class, we will focus on the latest Logic Pro X software. Some people like to think of this as "Garage Band Pro", and it is in many ways. But there is much more than that. Logic Pro X is a complete program, but it is not without limitations. I'll walk you through what they are, some ways you can deal with them, and how to use the program to produce and/or record your music. In this class, we will cover: The differences between versions of Logic Pro Installing and setting up Logic Pro of synth tracks Preparing to mix Audio effects built into EQ Audio recording setup Instrument recording Monitoring MIDI recording setup Recording MIDI tracks SoundCloud and uploading elsewhere... And much much more! Dr Jason Allen is a certified Ableton trainer and a Ph.D. in Musical Composition and master in Electronic Sounds.

I learned a lot! Jason is an amazing teacher!" "I've never had any formal training in music at all. Trying to learn all the notes and how everything translated was a serious challenge. After going through this class, Dr. J has totally broken down the barriers. The content was very useful and was easy for me to understand." "I like these courses because you can get up and running quickly without having to spend hours reading TMI (too much information!). Jason hits the high points but shows you what you need to know. Thank you!" "I have seen many other videos on scales and chords before, however, this has been the best. Now I understand minor scales and chords and even how to analyze songs. It really gave me the confidence to start producing music because I feel like I have a structure and guidelines to follow. INCREDIBLE!" " Clear and informative: Jason has a clear and uncluttered (with important touches of humor) presentation style that focuses on the important key aspects of this course. Recommended for beginners!" "dr. Allen does it again with his music theory series.
