I took a 10 week class in music production and recording in Logic Pro. It was highly informative hands on learning. My two instructors were both awesome and accomplished musicians. My classmates were also helpful. There was also private time with teachers who could address my questions and issues. I can’t say enough good things about the class. Kyle who runs the program is also just great to work worth. Highly recommend!

Anthem is a great place to take your music knowledge to the next level. You’ll be surrounded by great people of all levels whether you’re a beginner or someone who’s more experienced but simply wants to learn more about music production, DJing, mixing, etc. Anthem offers various courses that are helpful, fun, & truly informative. They also have a free program named “Beers & Beats” that they host every Tuesday @ the Grill Studios to come & share your own music & listen to others people’s music as well. A great community with a passion for music!

Intro to Ableton Class gave me the foundations to learn music production. Anthem Academy also host weekly feedback sessions which have been great for my continued learning journey in my first year. Great community support !

I took the Mixing and Mastering class at the end of 2025 and walked away with a lot of new knowledge and a much better trained ear. The facility is great and having access to the studios is a huge plus. The community at Anthem really stood out too. You meet a lot of talented people and that sense of collaboration makes the experience even better. The course is well paced, starting with solid fundamentals and moving into more advanced topics toward the end, so you do need to stay engaged. Our instructor, Kyle, did a great job explaining concepts and taking the time to make sure everyone understood the material. He balanced structured teaching with more open discussions, which made the class both informative and enjoyable. I really enjoyed my semester there and would definitely recommend Anthem as both a recording studio and a place to learn audio production.

Kyle is a great Logic Pro teacher. He’s patient, kind, and really easy to work with. He explains things clearly and welcomes my questions. The sessions are relaxed but still super productive, and I actually leave feeling more confident using Logic instead of overwhelmed. It’s comforting to know that I can practice during the week and be able to go through all my questions at our next session instead of spending hours upon hours searching YouTube videos. I highly recommend Kyle and Anthem Music Academy!
