I enjoyed every aspect of the course very much. It was a great experience that I surely would like to run through all over again. Everything was just perfect: notes, videos, DVRs, the site itself! You guys doing a good thing and you're doing it good!!! I would like to thank Danny and JC personally and the whole crew as well!!! This course suits perfectly a begginner like me and I hope it would be a good starting point. Armed with this priceless knowledge that you share in this very easy and comprehensive way, I hope that I would get one step closer to my dream which is to become a part of the music industry. Once again THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH and see you next course!

I've learned so much in 4 weeks it's unbelievable! The course covers a massive amount of content but the content is 'focused' each week so you very rarely get that feeling of being out of your depth or that you can't manage to do the assignments. I found that re-visiting the videos before I sat down to do the assignment really helped. The videos were amazing - could not be better. Our Tutor Ben was brilliant. I loved the DVRs. It's better to not guess at stuff and Ben would point out that you could try things this way etc. Never before would I have thought my hats were too loud!! But now, because of Ben's feedback, I have them lower in the mix. Today I'm almost feeling that eqing is no longer a problem and I can just do it!! - I never thought I would be able to say that! Excellent Course - and the online formats really seems to work. Cheers Sam
