Want to setup a meeting at our Facility?
At Gray Spark Audio Academy, we provide a Music Production course in Pune along with Sound Engineering Course. As we get students who want to be artists and want to create their own music, we found it very important to know the creative side of music where you learn to put down ideas on a DAW and then later get technical while mixing or mastering the same music. In this way students learn the skill of both worlds and know what suits them more and explore more in these fields.
Lets first learn the difference between Music Production and Sound Engineering
What is Music Production
In a Music Production course in India the approach has to be creative in nature where you take the ideas that are there in your head and put it down on a DAW or play it on an instrument.
Here you need to also know how to run a basic Digital Audio Workstation for putting down your ideas, and also sometimes you would need to produce the instruments in a particular way where it would justify your style or the artist’s style or what the music needs for it to stand out, for example: if you want the song to have a punchy distorted kick or want a synth that gives you a panning effect from left to right then you would have to process your normal kick or synth sample in a particular way using plugins.
Thus you would need to learn how to use these plugins on the DAW where things get technical.
You would also need to know the basic music theory to create melodies, come up with counter melodies and figure out chords and arrangements, while in sound engineering you would analyze the sounds and recorded instruments and how to make it sound cohesive enough to sound pleasing to the ears and bring across the emotion of the song. Sound engineering is more technical in nature as compared to Music Production.
