Music production courses

Learn the moves, not the presets.

Long-form courses from producers who actually release records. Sound design and Ableton, taught project-first — you build a finished track, not a folder of exercises.

Deep Dive into Sound Design

Build every sound in a track from oscillators up. Subtractive, FM and wavetable synthesis worked through on real material — bass that holds a system, leads that sit, textures that move on their own.

  • 01 Oscillators, filters and the shape of a patch
  • 02 FM and wavetable, without the maths lecture
  • 03 Modulation: envelopes, LFOs, and motion over time
  • 04 Designing bass that survives a club system
  • 05 Resampling and mangling your own output

Taught by Viandoks

Intro to Ableton

Get fluent in Live and finish something. Session versus Arrangement, routing, warping and the small handful of stock devices worth knowing — ending with a complete track you arranged yourself.

  • 01 The interface, and what to ignore in it
  • 02 Session view: sketching ideas fast
  • 03 Warping, clips and audio that behaves
  • 04 Stock devices that earn their place
  • 05 Arrangement: turning a loop into a track

Project files included

Sessions, patches and stems from the course, so you can open what you just watched and take it apart.

About

Modwheel Academy

Modwheel Academy publishes music production courses taught by working producers. It's run by Alexandre Taverdon, and operated by Modwheel Studio LLC.

The premise is narrow on purpose. Most production tutorials show you a result and walk you backwards through it. These courses go the other way — they start from an empty project and show the decisions as they get made, including the ones that get undone.

Courses are sold individually and taught by guest producers rather than a single house voice, so each one carries the working method of the person who made it.
