Course Description

** UDEMY BESTSELLER **This course is "5-Star Certified"by the International Association of Online Music Educators and Institutions (IAOMEI). This course has been independently reviewed by a panel of experts and has received a stellar 5-star rating.
100%Answer Rate! Every single question posted to this class is answered within 24 hours by the instructor. Welcome to the MUSIC THEORY FOR ELECTRONIC MUSIC COMPLETE Guide!
This course is a combination of all three of my Music Theory for Electronic Musicians classes:
Music Theory for Electronic Musicians, and Music Theory for Electronic Musicians 2, and Music Theory for Electronic Musicians 3.
In this class,we learnhow to work with the piano roll editor in a DAW to make harmonies, melodies, and whole tracks, and thenwe expand on those ideas and work with harmonic patterns (harmony) that is richer than just major and minor.
Production Techniques Through Theory The most important part of this class is an extensive foray into using these techniques in actual tracks. I'll be creating 9 tracks through this class, right along with you, each using a different technique so you can see exactly how Iincorporate it right into my music.
Full Sessions After each production project, I'll give you the whole session of what Imade using the techniques for you to play with. You can download it, expand on it, re-work it, and even release it as your work.
If Your Music is Missing Something, This is Probably It. If you are finding that you are writing track after track, and while they sound good, there is something they are missing - then this it. You are missing the sense of harmony that professional producers have. In this class, I'll arm you with all the tools you need to produce those tracks just like you imagine them.
Who should take this course?
Anyone interested in producing their own music. This will get you up and running and give your tracks a unique sound in no time.
StructureThis course consists of video lectures, which all contain a session in Ableton Live 9. If you are using a different program (or none at all), no worries! This isn't a class on how to use Ableton Live, and the concepts can be applied to any DAW.
Some of the step-by-step guides in this course will be:
Finding notes, chords, and keys in your audio programThe 7 intervals and how to put them togetherThe steps to finding the key of your track (or any track!)The most common chord progressionsThe steps to using inversions to take your track from good to amazing.
The 4 types of 7th chordsThe top techniques for writing a melody to fit a chord progression (and vice-versa!)The 7 modes and their uses19 Exotic scales and how to use them(include MIDIfiles!)The course is a roadmap to finding the missing piece in your tracks, or just getting started making great tracks.

Outstanding, I very much appreciate the depth and detail that Jay always goes into. I already know a lot of music theory and I've been sitting all the way through every video just because there is more explanation and detail given about each subject that is so, so beneficial to adding to my overall understanding and knowledge. Everything is strung together eloquently. One could say Jay's teaching is inverted. lol

By Adrin Ramos Gonzlez on 11/8/2020

Really enjoying the course so far :)

By Stephen Fitzgerald on 11/8/2020

It is a little simplistic. (maybe so children can understand)

By Nathan Fryer on 11/8/2020

This course is a MUST HAVE if you want to get started writing your own digital music. It's an excellent source for learning!

By D. Wesley on 11/8/2020

Explains the concepts in a clear and easy to understand way that I can apply almost immediately considering the medium.

By Michael Morris on 11/1/2020

So far so good. I am LEARNING!!!!!

By Carlos Romero on 11/1/2020

A lot of ah ha moments and laughing at why I didn't pay attention to music theory in high school

By Raul Lopez on 10/19/2020

Too easy and slow paced so far

By Phil-it bvba BE0467165955 on 10/17/2020

Very clear and unique approach. I had little clue about music theory but used Ableton for years... this course helps me to understand music theory in an environment I'm familiar with.

By Danielle Petty on 10/13/2020

Extremely useful and it doesn't matter what DAW you use or even if you know how to use one. I would recommend this course especially if you have tried learning music theory and never retain anything because you can't relate it to the kind of music you want to create.

By Felippe Zavataro on 10/10/2020

Everything about this course was exactly what I was expecting and needed. I also almost ALWAYS come back to remember things or refresh my memory. Super SUPER useful and informative. Thank you for taking time out to do this. It is GREATLY appreciated!

By Yaman Tanlkan on 9/25/2020

Amaziiiiing love the guy ! I think it is kinda slow though. I understand some stuff and have to forward the video little by little but its okay I guess.
