How to Become Qualified in Music Production

About Music Production

At its heart, music production is the process of bringing together the different strands of a sound recording to create commercially successful music. It’s a specialist area that requires a creative flair, musicality and a solid understanding of the music industry.

To become a successful music producer, you’ll need to be organised, patient and able to acquire new skills with speed. You’ll also need excellent communication skills so that you can help artists to relax and communicate your musical vision to a wide range of people.

What Do Music Producers Do?

As a music producer, it will be your job to oversee the entire process of recording a song, an album or a piece of instrumental music. You’ll also be responsible for managing a team of professionals, including musicians, artists and technical experts.

While your exact responsibilities may vary depending on the studio, label or artist you work for, they’re likely to include:

  • Selecting, writing and arranging songs
  • Listening to demo tapes
  • Contacting musicians
  • Deciding which type of recording process to use with a particular artist or band
  • Operating industry-standard technical equipment such as mixing decks
  • Audio editing and sound design
  • Scheduling recordings
  • Setting budgets
  • Making logistical arrangements for artists
  • Communicating with music distributors
  • Using production tools such as Pro Tools, Ableton Live and Logic Pro X
  • Mixing live sound

Working in Music Production

If you decide music production is the career for you, be prepared to be flexible, as you’re likely to be working long hours, including evenings and weekends. Most producers are employed to work on a particular project, so fixed-term contracts and self-employment are common.

There’s a lot of competition for music production gigs, so you’ll need to gain some practical experience to land your first role. Spending some time in a recording studio is the perfect way to start, as even if you’re asked to make the tea, you’ll learn a lot by observing the experts.

How to Become Qualified in Music Production

A music production qualification will certainly make your CV stand out from the crowd, but you don’t necessarily need a degree. There are plenty of alternatives available, including short technical production courses, online courses and apprenticeships.

If you do decide to take a degree, music production, music, sound engineering, and multimedia are the best subjects to study. Look for degree courses that offer industrial placements, top-quality technical resources and opportunities to network with industry contacts. 

If you have a background in music, short courses can be a good way to boost your knowledge without high additional costs. Tutorials and short music production courses can give you the technical skills and production techniques you need to have the right entry requirements for your first full-time music role.

Short courses can be your own skillset masterclass and can show you how to enter creative industries like music. For those wanting to look at specialisms such as music composition, music performance or post-production, dedicated short courses can be the way to go. Meanwhile, other types of courses can show you how to enter the music business, with modules that look at the skills needed to enter the world of popular music and even work for large music media brands such as the BBC.

Music technology courses can show you the fundamentals of electronic music production, music theory, sound synthesis and how to manage your own digital audio workstation. 

Learning the different formats and software of audio production can be a great way for beginners to turn their passion for songwriting and music production into a fully-fledged career. Whether it’s through an undergraduate degree, postgraduate course or short course, upskilling is the best way to kick-start your career in music production.
