Music production (Ableton, GarageBand, Logic Pro x) for beginners

Well-structured introduction to producing/writing/recording your own music with computer software. I have experience with Ableton Live, GarageBand, and Logic Pro X.

I am a professional musician with a master's degree in guitar but have always had a passion for music production. Do you want to be able to record and write music on your computer, but does it intimidate or scare you off? Of course, it takes some practice but the basics are actually not that hard when being taught well. I can help you with that.

A basic ‘package’ of 6 lessons with course material will set you up for a skill that’s extremely useful in today’s industry! If you’re looking for a hobby, it’s quite fun and freeing creatively.

Giuseppe
Piano, solfege, composition in Brussels and Leuven.
I give piano and music theory/ music writing (composition) classes in regions Brussels and Leuven. I have studied in Italy (piano) and at Brussels Conservatoire (music writing). I like sharing my artistic knowledge and experience with motivated students of all ages and varied backgrounds. In my teaching method I try to focus on the strong points and qualities of the student in order to build up technical skills which will help the student to overcome difficulties in a simple and natural way. It is crucial for me to make the student able to express their personality in an autonomous and creative way.

Are you interested in embarking on a musical journey, aiming to learn your favorite pieces or songs, or perhaps are you interested in learning composition/ notation techniques? As an experienced composer and pianist I'll do my best to teach in a fun and engaging way for all ages!

Javier
Musical composition . Theory, ideal orchestration for guitarists
We can all compose music, we all have "something to say" in our course we will advance with a workshop outline based on works and/or songs of interest to you. We will take your ideas and with the composition tools we will shape your works. Working on structure, form, harmony, melody construction and orchestration. Ideal for musicians who want tools to make their own songs.

Quentin
Learn the bass differently and intuitively
This course is above all there to make you want to play bass, let it be fun! It will be based on the practice of the instrument, on the understanding and the role of the bass. The theory will be based on the progress of the practice. Step by step, practice and theory will thus be complementary, and will necessarily be useful! Have you always dreamed of being able to play bass? it's time to get started! Let the magic of music take hold of you and become the accomplished bassist you always wanted to be! Possibility of offering this course to one of your loved ones, a very appreciated gift for people who would like to embark on a musical adventure!

Julia
Make your own song, record it, and have creative support!
Do you make music at home, but always wanted to record a song for fun? If you are learning how to play it, I have the gear to help you create and record a song, so you can share it with your friends and family, or just have it for yourself. I can play a lot of instruments and create tracks to accompany you. You can write a song or make a recording of you playing something you are working on. Depending on your level and experience with music, it would be a great way to learn some music theory too. I am Julia, a professional musician originally from Montreal, Canada. I have lived in the Netherlands for 4 years and have a Master's degree in Music. I compose, engineer, and perform music. I also love to teach, I have experience with ages 9 to 90. I want to get the song in your head out into the air.

Martin
Master the Score: Elevate Your Music Theory Skills with Online Lessons by Martin Levallois
I'm Martin! I've studied Guitar Performance major at Berklee College of Music. I have previously taught students ranging from children to elders, in various guitar styles including jazz, rock and pop. I worked as a Core Music Tutor at Berklee College of Music, where I provided individual, hourly tutoring sessions. During the class time I assisted the students in completing coursework and projects in subjects like Fundamentals of Ear Training, Music Fundamentals, Music Application and Theory, Harmony 2-4, Ear Training 1-4, Solfege 1-2, Arranging 1-2, Tonal Harmony and Composition 1-2, Art of Counterpoint, and Conducting 1. During this job I got certified by the College Reading and Learning Association through trainings offered in the program. I would describe my teaching philosophy as organic and holistic. I believe that with unlimited content at their fingertips, people today tend to be overwhelmed by the amount of information, whereas I consider it should be a mix between knowledge and perceptual approach. I understand the student needs its own time to digest knowledge and incorporate it.
