Course Overview

Are you an aspiring songwriter or producer? Do you have a list of song ideas you want to professionally record and put out into the world? If so, this specialization is for you. The Writing and Producing Music in Your Home Studio specialization will provide you with the guidelines you need to develop a song from an original idea into a mastered production entirely on your own. With recording and production equipment more affordable than ever, it has become easier and more common for musicians to produce their own songs from the comfort of their own homes. You will begin with The Art of Music Production, where you’ll learn how to develop your artist identity, create a simple song idea, and discover tips for the trade that will make your music production journey smoother. You will continue to work with this song idea, developing the lyrics to communicate stronger emotions before setting them to music with our two courses, Songwriting: Writing the Lyrics and Songwriting: Writing the Music. Next, you will dive into vocal production with our Art of Vocal Production course, honing the industry-standard techniques to create an outstanding vocal performance of your song in a digital audio workstation (DAW). Finally, you will combine all your ideas to polish your original track, all from your home studio in Producing Music in Your Home Studio.
