Developed by music industry professionals who have worked with Bjork, Swedish House Mafia, N.E.R.D. and many more, the Music Production & Sound Engineering Diploma is a comprehensive practical guide to the creative process of producing music. Featuring top software packages such as Native Instruments' Komplete, Waves and UAD, this course of intensive study consists of three classes per week plus unlimited practice time. There are six course modules, each specialising in an important area of music production. Class sizes are strictly limited and each student has their own Apple Mac audio workstation in class. Classes are taught by professional music producers and every student on this six month course has access to the Point Blank studio facilities seven days a week for the duration of their course. If you are hungry to learn music production and sound engineering and looking for the fast track route to professional skills then there is no other music production school quite like it.
