Dear Forum Friends,
Sorry it's been such a long time since my last post. Real life has been keeping in pinned down and rather degressed for the several months. To make a long, whining story short, I'm finally get back on top of things so hopefully you'll hear from me more often.
I've been listening to your music and it has always been enjoyable and inspirational. Thanks for sharing. It makes a difference!

Hey Space dog welcome back, Life certainly has many twists and turns, maybe you will get an idea for song out of all of that. Seem to remember you were doing the introduction to music production course some time back. Hope it all went ok, a great course.  Musiclover

Musiclover,
Thanks for the note. Good idea about finding a song out this. I think they call it the blues!
Correct about the Berklee Music Production. Wow, what memory. I can barely remember what I had for lunch!
The course was great. I learned so much. It was a lot harder than I expected and took quite a bit of attention but I did well and got a great seet of notes for reference. My only complaint was how they handled the final exam. First they put the link to the final in hard place to find so a lot of people were confused. Then they didn't allow you take the exam until after all the deadlines for the last weeks work had passed. For me that meant I waited almost two weeks from the time I finished the course work until I could take the exam.
Bottom line, it was well worth my time and I recommend it for anyone getting started in home recording.

SD Good to hear you loved the course Space dog as I did too. In fact I signed up a few times and watched the videos a lot. As I hadn't the time I didn't do any assignments only quizzes but as I said on another thread provided you get 90% on each quiz and exam you pass, though with a score just under 70% overall. Its actually a good idea I feel just to keep signing up and doing the quizzes without even have to watch the videos again, to keep the material fresh in the brain. Only take a little while to do the quizzes each week. That's what I did last time and passed for the second time....lol Seriously though its not passing that counts its the great material in the course. Louden is a great teacher. musiclover
