Workshop Overview
Whether you’re a total beginner or someone looking to explore music production with real instruments, this hands-on course guides you through every step — from strumming your first chord to mixing your final track using BandLab, a powerful and free digital audio workstation (DAW).
This course is perfect for aspiring music creators who want to learn how to play the guitar and produce complete songs using a simple home setup.
You’ll gain practical skills in acoustic guitar fundamentals, including essential chord shapes, strumming patterns, and rhythm techniques — all of which will serve as the musical foundation for your own original compositions.
