"It's an awesome course. Very detailed and thorough. I've been producing for a long time but it's just great to pick up little tips, tricks and also to get a different perspective and to gain knowledge. When people including me can drop thousands of $ on hardware and software, spending 30 on something which actually helps you make your productions sound better is a no brainer."
