Coursera.org - Introduction to music production

Hello,

some of you may be interested in this free online course about music production by Berklee college, it's fairly basic stuff but presented in a rational and engaging way. The course will last 6 weeks, you'll have to fill some assignments and you'll get a frequency certification at end if you pass the various tests. It's not too much time consuming, I've gone trough the first lesson videos and filled the quizzes in less than 2 hours.

Ah Shit faQ! Just saw they have the Introduction to Programming for Musicians and Digital Artists course too and they're using ChucK?! Nooooooo!

Why not SuperCollider? I just started with SC and this would be exactly what i needed if it was only SC.

I wish this course was still available. Just been loving Yee-king’s Superuser hard the past few days.
