About this product

Product Information

Many DJs, gigging musicians, and electronic music producers understand how to play their instruments or make music on the computer, but they lack the basic knowledge of music theory needed to take their music-making to the next level and compose truly professional tracks. Beneath all the enormously different styles of modern electronic music lie certain fundamentals of the musical language that are exactly the same no matter what kind of music you write. It is very important to acquire an understanding of these fundamentals if you are to develop as a musician and music producer. Put simply, you need to know what you are doing with regard to the music that you are writing. Music Theory for Computer Musicians explains these music theory fundamentals in the most simple and accessible way possible. Concepts are taught using the MIDI keyboard environment and todayas computer composing and recording software. By reading this book and following the exercises contained within it, you, the aspiring music producer/computer musician, will find yourself making great progress toward understanding and using these fundamentals of the music language. The result will be a great improvement in your ability to write and produce your own original music!

Not the most engaging... Pretty much just a textbook
The beginning is very interesting however as soon as you get to music notation and then chords the books kinda lacks excitement. Kinda lacks engagement and although the info in this text is still true I feel it's outdated and assumes you're making EDM. All in all if you want to grind through a textbook this will educate you on music theory pretty thoroughly. Negatives is it lacks excitement and seems like the main focus was strictly musical things and straight music theory. There are online resources that can teach you this and more in a more fun way and give you tips for your specific genre. This will teach you music theory and some cool facts about other things relating to music.

A Good title for this book on Theory for PC's Musician
I bought the Music Theory Book for Computer Muscians by Michael Hewitt (2008) for a beginner-intermediate muscian ORGANIST, KEYBOARD PLAYER. To advance in music theory on my own, at my own speed, time and advantage with help and aide of my own pc. The CD companion will help me and others who use this book. Another reason is that it is up to date and a colorful book cover.A new beginning in the Theory of the music world using your pc! Thank you, Kathleen Gleeson8653
