Shit, spent 6 years at Uni for nothing :(

3

Seems good. I signed up.

4

I also signed up for the Sound Design class and Introduction to Music Production… Class for Intro to Music Prod started on the 14th. I’m sure I know some of the stuff but I like to keep learning.

Thanks for this

I’m taking two classes here…

Intro to Music Production

and SOund Design.

It’s going well. I like it…I’m learning

6

Well I gotta start somewhere, but anyways nothing hurts about learning. It only helps you gain :)

7

Ok… I’m learning a lot … I thought I knew the basics but apparently not lol.

I’m still taking both classes Intro to Music Production and Sound Design. The sound design is a little boring but I understand, it’s all about theory on synthesis for now…

Well I should ve did a course which is something like this and be happy in life instead of being a good for nothing engineer :smiley:

Has anyone actually gone through the corurseyet? What do you think if you have?
