Quality degraded compared to before Used to be great but now it's just a money making business. The subscription is 5 times more expensive than before, the platform itself (updated) is horrible compared to the forum it was based on before where you could really collaborate and communicate with artists in a simple and creative way. There's the content and video tutorials created by the founder IllFactor that are useful and all, but not really worth 500$ / year. Better save the money and invest in buying gear and tools to make music.

Excellent Decision - Everything I Need To Keep Pushing Me. I really appreciate Beat Academy and the community. The instruction is excellent and having a community to bounce thoughts and questions off of is really great. Additionally the challenges constantly give me something to strive for. Really happy to be part of this community.

Elevate Program Elevate was a game-changer for my music overall! Before starting, I had no idea where I was going when it came to music production, I was unaware of what areas needed improvement, I just knew something didn't sound right. After Elevate, I now have the tools to finish song ideas and know how to address issues I am hearing in my productions! I have full confidence to make and release music now, not only have I learned a lot of music production skills, but this program also helped shift my mindset.

I really enjoyed this Program I really enjoyed this Program. Some of my huge take aways was to build relationships with people that like creating music like me and how important the Motif is to music. The things I would have like to have seen; that everyones music put into the DAW so we can solo the songs and hear the difference and make adjustments (like oh wow I like how this person kick or bass sounds etc; this would have been definitely helpful during mastering week) even though we got all of our songs reviewed, comparing the ‘sonics’ and others song choices a little closer would have been more efficient and effective. I believe one of the things that the music community ‘as a whole’ is missing is “yeah everyone can hear what plugin or vst that pro is using, but the sound selection and sonic comprehension is just as important” and that should have been the main driving point because how sounds are sitting and moving inside the speakers are what drives people to listen.

Great online music production academy Great online music production academy, I learnt a lot with ill Factor, leading to official releases on streaming platforms. A lot of valuable tips and tricks, disseminated along very well structured courses, on a professional platform. Topics are covering all aspects producers must know if we are serious about it, without to say his great coaching skills making things easy to understand. :-) I could have never made it so far without Beat Academy!
