BEFORE YOU EXPLORE

You don’t need everything.

One music-making tool and a small collection of sounds are enough for a starting point. Spend time learning what you have before adding more.

This library includes free resources, trials and paid products. Follow the developer or publisher links for current pricing, compatibility and licensing details.

01 / MUSIC SOFTWARE

A place to build your ideas.

Explore the music-making software in the existing Therapy of Sounds library. These links open the developer’s website in a new tab.

02 / DRUMS & SAMPLES

Find a sound that starts something.

Browse drum kits and sample collections. Check the license for each download before using it in music you plan to release.

03 / INSTRUMENTS & EFFECTS

Explore a different texture.

Find instruments and effects through these existing resource collections. Check that a plugin works with your music software and operating system.

Put one tool to use.

Turn exploring into making. Try a short beat-making exercise, or work through the fundamentals with one-on-one guidance.
