Music Production: What Should you Learn Next?

In the concluding monologue of his extensive 150‑video introductory music‑production series, J. Anthony Allen recaps the purpose of the class—providing a broad, foundational overview that prepares students for deeper study. He outlines a clear learning pathway: first, select and master a digital audio workstation (DAW), recommending his own Ableton Live courses; next, pursue a dedicated sound‑design class to go beyond the basics; then move on to mixing and mastering classes, each described as a separate, in‑depth “can of worms.” Allen also highlights additional offerings such as composition, songwriting, and film‑scoring courses, urging viewers to explore those if they wish to broaden their creative skill set. He ends with a call to stay on the site and check out the linked resources, emphasizing that the next steps are designed to “whet your appetite” and transition learners from introductory concepts to professional‑level production.
