ABOUT THE LESSON
Students can expect a comprehensive learning experience tailored to their skill level and aspirations.

Students can be introduced to equipment setup and operation and be given guidance on live performance preparation, integrating DJ sets with live production elements.
Within Music Production, students can learn both the fundamentals and advanced topics, including using Ableton Live, MIDI, audio recording techniques, understanding sound design, music theory, and the creation of melodies, chords, and basslines. Students can gain hands-on practice with Ableton and learn how to arrange and structure their compositions effectively, as well as insight into mixing and mastering techniques, helping students achieve a polished and professional sound. Caz is able to cover topics such as using effects, processing sounds, and creating a balanced mix as well as guidance on workflow optimization, organization, and using plugins effectively, as well as how to develop their own unique sound.
