6-Week “Complete Guide to Max for Live” – Starts Jan 28

Post by Music Hackspace » Mon Jan 13, 2025 11:48 am

Hey everyone,

If you’re looking to take your Max for Live projects to the next level, check out this new 6-week online course with Music Hackspace, Complete Guide to Max for Live: Professional Device Design (link). It’s led by Max Certified Trainers Phelan Kane and Umut Eldem, and runs from January 28th, featuring:
  • 12 live sessions (2 hours each)
    One-to-one feedback slots
    Group exercises and take-home assignments
    Lifetime access to recordings
    A chance to meet fellow creators from around the globe
Video overview

You’ll explore everything from building synths and samplers to getting hands-on with the latest updates in Max 9 (code blocks, JavaScript v8, ABL objects, and new Jitter capabilities). The classes are scheduled to accommodate international time zones, with sessions running 5–7pm GMT.

It’s aimed at composers, sound/interaction designers, installation artists, and anyone who wants to push their M4L skills further. You’ll finish the course ready to deliver polished, industry-standard devices with a clear understanding of Max for Live’s deeper possibilities.

If you have any questions or want more details about the syllabus and pricing (early bird discount available), feel free to get in touch. Hope to see you there!

Cheers,
JB

Just chiming in to say I've followed some courses from Phelan Kane and Umut Eldem, and they are great teachers.
No doubt their course will be worth it.

Which one, Getting Started or Going Deeper? And why is this 6-week course not part of the latter?

It’s not incoherent with what I’ve experienced in the past, although in my case I could benefit from financing programs. I doubt this is eligible but I’d be curious. Of course this is very specific to countries and students situations.

Good question, and I asked myself the same.
Your website and the subscriptions are not always crystal clear if I may say, although it’s been a bit improved.
