im thinking of hanging up the decks and record boxes and start thinking about getting into producing ..
i hear people go on courses but can it be done to self teach on many of the programs used and what starter programs would you advise..
many thanks
from my own experience i can say that the course i took gave me a massive boost in my skills and knowledge. it makes such a difference to have someone there to explain in detail about (for example) how a compressor works and more importantly why they are used...Quote:

Let me repeat what i said in the other thread
Going to college for music tech is a waste of time.
Going to college for traditional music is WAY better.
If you want to learn, practice, go spend time making tea for a producer you know.

I did 2 college courses in music technology, and i had already self taught myself more than i learnt on the corses. I think you have to choose the right course at the right place to get the best results.
