Any additional unexcused absences beyond that one absence does not come with the expectation that we will automatically be able to accommodate additional makeup classes.  Please also note that any excused absences (vacation, holidays, etc.) require us to be notified at minimum 10 days in advance so we can adjust our internal scheduling.


Ableton Live Music Production Course

This course was specially-crafted to be both an incubator for the novice with no music production experience, as well as a guide for the current music producer that wants to learn the power of Ableton Live. You only need the will to learn to get started. We have the latest version of Ableton Live and the Ableton Push 2 controller readily available in class.

Our Music Production Course is about 10 and a half months long and split up into four multi-week sessions. Each session directly follows the completion of a previous session, but can also be paused for a later date to accommodate versatile schedules (subject to availability).
