Music Production Course
Learn the basics of music Production
You are a musician. You enjoy playing live, at gigs and rehearsals, and at a jam with your buddies. Yet, you wonder how to produce music and maybe bring these ideas recorded on your phone to a whole new level.
Well look no further, Edouard Reny got you covered!
Reason is a Digital Audio Work (DAW) station that works like you pedal or effect board! Plug in effects into instruments, record, tweak, play with the sounds, experiment nondestructively at will, find amazing arrangements, and end up with your idea sounding like a professional sounding track. You could even release your own CD or Spotify playlist
The first section is to get beginners started: you will understand how Reason works, create your first devices, play and record your first notes, and apply your first effects.
The second section is the core of the course. Everything you need to know to produce your first music track in Reason. Together, we will produce a short music piece with beat, bass, pad, piano, effects and we will even design our own ear candy. We will also extensively look into mixing theory and apply what we learn on our little creation. This exercise will give you the tools to fly with your own creative wings.
The third section compiles videos on how to install and set up reason, so that you can enjoy music making without any technical difficulties.
The last section contains bonus videos tips to help you explore Reason further. For example a video contains a compilation of really indispensable keyboard shortcuts. Another will explain what are Rack Extensions and how to explore them (We will explore one together to show you).
This course is aimed at beginners and intermediate level users. In addition, it only requires the Reason package: throughout this course, we will only use the devices part of the base package (except for some videos in section 4). It was created on reason 9.5 in 2017, but because this course dives into the core of how the software works, it could also have been created for what we have now in 2024, Reason 13.
This course will show you fantastic tools to explore your own musicality!
