EL curso es breve, no muy profundo, pero me ha parecido interesante. Te da una idea o un patrón de como empezar a estructurar un tema de forma sencilla con beats y loops. Es mejor tener algunas nociones previas de algunos conceptos como lo que es un secuenciador, un DAW, un sampler, MIDI, ect... porque pasa muy por encima y si no estarás un poco perdido.
