Course Description

Are you a music maker, performer, composer, or aspiring songwriter looking to up your game? This is the place to start.

Splice is a platform that gives you access to millions of completely royalty-free samples. They have their own app that works alongside your DAW, giving you full creative freedom to explore and manage your Splice sounds. Producers all around the world are turning to use Splice as their main library of sounds - and you should too!

If you don't know me, I've published a lot of classes here. Those classes have been really successful, and a big request I get from students is: Show us how to use some of your "secret weapon" tools. So here you go - my biggest and best music production secret weapon: Splice.

Splice is an application and platform that requires a paid subscription. In order to best take advantage of this course, please be ready to purchase a subscription. (But don't do it yet! Let me walk you through the options).


Here is a list of some of the questions we will answer:

  • What is Splice?

  • How music does it cost?

  • How do I set it up?

  • What DAWS will it work with?

  • Can I keep my Splice sounds after I cancel my account (You can!)

  • Can I sell my own samples on Splice?

  • How do I use the Splice app?

  • What is the Splice credit system?

  • And Much, Much, More!


My Promise to You:

I am a full-time Music composer and Educator. If you have any questions please post them in the class or send me a direct message. I will respond within 24 hours. And if you find this class isn't for you, I am more than happy for you to take advantage of the 30-day money-back guarantee. No questions asked.


What makes me qualified to teach you?

In addition to being a composer and educator,  I also have a Ph.D. in music, I am a university music professor, and have a long list of awards for teaching.

But more importantly: I use this stuff every day. I write music professionally, I am an active guitarist, and I stay on top of all the latest production techniques, workflows, and styles. As you will see in this class, I just love this stuff. And I love teaching it.

You will not have another opportunity to learn my secret weapons than this.

Let's get started! 

See you in lesson 1.

All best,

Jason (but call me Jay...)

Great introduction to this tool!

By Martin Lembke on 12/19/2021

Eigentlich ist dieser Kurs sehr interessant, obwohl er ein wenig nach Werbung für Splice klingt. Doch leider scheinen die Informationen nicht ganz korrekt zu sein. Die auf Splice angebotenen Samples sollen angeblich lizenzfrei und kommerziell nutzbar sein. Werden jedoch Musikstücke mit den Samples von Splice zur Videoproduktion genutzt, dann dauert es nicht lange, bis die Videos von YouTube aufgrund von Urheberrechtsverletzungen gesperrt werden. Obwohl es im Internet dutzende dieser schlechten Erfahrungen zu sehen gibt, wurde im Video nicht darauf hingewiesen.

This is the class I've been looking for! THANK YOU!

By LeRoy Wood III on 12/15/2021

This was a great overview of Splice. It gave helpful tips, and illumination on what you get with Splice, and how that can be used in your existing workflow. If you're like me, and your sample library is bulging with samples of questionable licensing, this course will likely give you the incentive to try something new and expand your sonic palette.
