The course materials were very knowledgeable and thorough. The tutor was great and made it easy to learn everything. The TGA team are always aware that students skills are varied from beginners to higher up and still made it easy and fun. Excellent course!

This course has unlocked the mystery of sound design and synths, not just in Ableton, but also for real-world synths and synths in other DAWs. I am so glad I took this course and highly recommend it.
