Testimonial

Standing head and shoulders above any DAW tutorial that I have seen, this class is truly epic and is perfect for beginner and expert alike. Bitwig takes some unpacking and Mattias does a super job with his patient delivery and top level music and video making skills. A+++

Testimonial

The Bitwig Masterclass is a must for any musician looking to get a very good understanding of Bitwig Studio and all the possibilities it provides. The course is well structured and Mattias' very pedagogic approach is ideal for making quick progress and building a strong foundation of knowledge that will allow you to record your tunes in no time. Learning to use Bitwig isn't hard with Mattias, quite the opposite. Give it a try ;)

Testimonial

I found the masterclass very useful for getting familiar with Bitwig Studio. I can tell a lot of effort was put in to this and to make it as entertaining and useful as possible for a educational course. I would recommend.

Testimonial

I found the whole course very informative and imagine i will be referring back to it multiple times. Definitely worth the money if you're a complete noob like me!

Testimonial

I want to thank u for the masterclass.
Half march I finished my recordstudio and left all Bitwig courses behind. Your master-class absolute helped me to conquer the DAW from scratch on and its happy time for me to be creative again. Ectually 'Spring In Russia Spring In Europe' was the verry first inspiration, walking in woods and hearing the birds, go in to my studio and in two hours I recorded this. I wish you happy healthy life with your teachings, your creativity and your family. With regards in respect, Frans Nouws Amsterdam.
