In this class, we learn how to work with the piano roll editor in a DAW to make harmonies, melodies, and whole tracks, and then we 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 I incorporate it right into my music. Full Sessions After each production project, I'll give you the whole session of what I made 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. Structure This 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.

Music Theory for a Digital Age is a foundation course in music theory created and taught by lecturer, author and composer Dr Michael Hewitt. The course offers a comprehensive foundation in musical theory, both in terms of Western musical traditions and the theory underlying the process of modern methods of musical production. Hi, I’m Dr Michael Hewitt - welcome to my course ‘Music Theory for a Digital Age’! In my work as Head of the Music Technology Department of an adult education college, an important part of my job was developing and teaching courses that would prepare students to go on to study music at university. For this purpose I developed an in depth one-year music theory course that covered absolutely everything students would need to know in order for them to be able to thrive in a university environment. What helped me to do this was that I also teach ABRSM music theory up to grade 8. It became clear as I developed this course that teaching standard music theory was not going to be enough to meet my students’ needs. This is because music theory as generally taught is predominantly based upon the traditions of Western written classical music. Yet many of my students came from musical backgrounds that were different to this and often had musical interests that went beyond the classics. Some of my students were DJs, keen to create their own dance music tracks using music production software. Some were rap artists whose interests primarily lay in that particular genre. Others were gigging musicians who could pick up the essentials of a song using no more than their own ear. Still others were classically trained musicians who wanted to keep pace with the rapid developments of modern music technology. And at one time, all of the members of an entire punk rock band enrolled. Conventional music theory did not cover a lot of the topics that these students needed to know about. An example of one such topic is the science of sound. Music today is not just composed of notes written into a score. A wide variety of different sounds are used, many of which are then recorded, used as samples and integrated into musical compositions. And some of these compositions consist entirely of sounds that have been recorded and sampled in this way. To get to grips with this process an understanding of the science of sound and its properties is essential. Another example is the impact of the internet upon music, not just in terms of distribution and marketing but also in exposure to styles of music originating from other cultures, something standard music theory does not tend to take into account. So the challenge here was to create a course that not only covered conventional music theory topics, but also enabled the student to sympathetically embrace all styles of World Music as a part of our global musical culture. Then there is the impact of technology upon music. This includes the increasing relevance of the modern recording studio to all types and styles of music, the development of synthesizers, samplers and drum machines, the development of general MIDI standard protocols, the use of digital audio workstations, and so much more. A student only familiar with standard music theory would not be properly equipped to embrace the benefits of all of this, let alone understand how modern music technology can be used to their advantage. Because of all this, I felt compelled to upgrade music theory and bring it into line with the actual practice of music as we find it in this digital age. The result was a music theory course that my students really loved and could engage with on a practical level. Now you too can gain this valuable knowledge for yourself – the equivalent of a complete college level music theory course – for a very small amount of money considering the costs of education today. On this course, you will learn conventional music theory to help prepare you for your ABRSM exams. But you will also learn the vital knowledge you need to be able to thrive in a digital environment. So come and join me and participate in my course Music Theory for a Digital Age. By doing so you will benefit from the wealth of experience I bring to the course as a: · Former head of both Music Technology and Creative Media college Departments. · University tutor of classical music harmony, music history, counterpoint and composition. · Author of best selling music textbooks used in universities all round the world. · Working professional in the music industry. · Composer of music for films and TV. · Composer of modern classical music working to commission. Recommendations from Former Students “Dr Mike Hewitt is the teacher I never had, and I consider myself very lucky to call him my tutor. He’s managed to get the best out of me and pushed me further than I ever thought imaginable, reaching goals I thought were way out of my reach.” Dafydd Jones Composer, music producer and guitar/drums tutor. “I highly recommend Mike Hewitt. He’s a respected and inspirational tutor.” Denise Bevington “ Best teacher I’ve ever had.” John Walls “One of the best educators ever.. Michael Hewitt is without a doubt one the best educators I have ever had the good fortune to be under the tutelage of.. Thanks for the knowledge Mike!” Josh Evans “Compassionate and inspirational.. Mike Hewitt is an inspirational teacher...He succeeds in instilling positive change and empowering the lives of all his learners, including many of those from disadvantaged backgrounds.” Ronnie Parry, Guitar tutor PGCE, BA (Hons)

*** ENROLL IN THE #1 RATED Music COURSE ON UDEMY TODAY! *** ============================================== Review from Sam: Revolutionary way to learn chord progression! Already knew circle of 5ths when I first learned theory,  but didn't know that it also can be used to chord progression for every  key. Rosa structured the whole course in such a detail where it takes you  from a player who can't play without score to a player who can start  playing simple songs by ear. But what is more important is that you can  advance further from there by playing in different keys, exploring more  advanced chords using her concept. Even if you are an advanced player , I think this course still can help  you build a solid foundation in understanding the chord progression in  more details. Highly recommended! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Review from Ángel Candelaria:   Very Useful A great resource for both students and music teachers.

When tutoring music theory at the university-level, I would often see students who struggled in the classroom setting. Much of the time this is because everyone thinks and learns in a different way. What makes sense to some students, might have to be explained another way to others. I have designed this course to address this problem by explaining concepts through several different mediums and in various ways. This course is a standard, university-level music theory class. The material covered at universities in beginner music theory classes is the same material covered here, but here it does not cost nearly as much. Another benefit of this format is one can go through it at their own pace and are not rushed to complete everything throughout one semester. Once purchased, the student will have access to this class for life. So, students will be able to regularly review any concepts they might struggle with. This class is comprised of: Written lectures that operate as chapters for a simplified textbook Video lectures that cover the written material in depth Quick definitions guides for each lecture Exercises to test one’s understanding and answer guides to check each exercise Quizzes for each section Examples of topics covered in this course include: Reading pitch Reading rhythm Reading most other symbols in music notation Tempo Time signatures Tuplets Key signatures Keyboard pitch labeling Dynamic indicators Tone-color Solfège Scale degree numbers Intervals Quality Major and minor scales Modes and pentatonic scales Triads Seventh chords Figured bass Lead-sheet notation Chord progression construction And many more subjects pertaining to the aforementioned material This course is the first in a series that will cover the entirety of undergraduate level music theory classes. Students enrolled in this class will receive discounts on future courses of mine.
