Who it is for

Build skills you can use

This programme is designed for learners at this level: intermediate/advanced; able to complete basic mixes independently. Work through demonstrations and practical exercises with Gregory, then apply the ideas to a guided project.

What you work towards

Two contrasting mixes and a documented revision process.

The nine live hours introduce and practise the core workflow. Allow time outside class to develop and refine your project; progress depends on your starting point and practice.

Interest list open. Intake dates will be announced when enrolment opens. Registering interest is free, does not reserve a place, and creates no payment obligation.
