Overview

Learn 10 beat making skills to become a professional producer.

Description

So, you went out in brought thousands of dollars worth of production equipment. You turn on your DAW or hardware set-up and randomly select sounds as part of the foundation of an untitled track. After spending countless hours constructing a track with no specific focus, you finally settle on an idea and move on to the next track.

Contrary to the belief, a beat maker and producer are not one in the same. There are many differences between being a beat maker and a producer. A beat maker comes up with beats and rhythmic elements on top of samples or other instruments. A producer may not create beats at all but he or she can bring bring in musicians and tell them what to play and how to play it. He or she understands the basics of music theory and production psychology. Making the conversion from beat maker to producer can be a difficult path, especially if you don’t know the necessary steps.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
