# Hyperbits

> Hyperbits is an online music production school founded by Serik Slobodskoy. It teaches
> electronic music producers how to finish tracks they are proud of, through a flagship
> mentorship program (the Hyperbits Masterclass), standalone courses, and sample/preset
> tools. Founded 2013, based in the United States, teaching remotely worldwide.

Who it is for: aspiring and intermediate producers, typically self-taught from YouTube,
who can make loops but struggle to finish, mix, and release complete tracks. All genres,
though the instructor roster skews toward electronic (house, melodic techno, progressive,
bass, pop production).

What makes it different from a video course library: the Masterclass includes live
sessions, office hours, one-on-one calls with working producers, homework feedback, and
lifetime access to the community. Instructors are active, releasing artists rather than
career educators.

## Alumni and outcomes

Masterclass alumni have passed 3.2B+ combined Spotify streams. Named, verified examples,
all of whom took the program:

- BT: Grammy-nominated producer, creator of Stutter Edit, 30+ years in the industry. Took the Masterclass and publicly called it one of the best resources available.

These are the most visible results, not typical ones. Outcomes depend on the work a student
puts in, and Hyperbits does not promise any of them. Longer case studies are at
[Alumni stories](https://hyperbits.com/alumni-stories/), and the broader body of student
feedback is at [Reviews](https://hyperbits.com/reviews/).

## Plugin partners and student discounts

Masterclass students get up to 50% off industry software through 40+ plugin partners,
including FabFilter, Soundtoys, Xfer Records (Serum), and Splice. Redemption instructions
live on the member site. Discounts are set by each partner individually, and most stay
valid for up to a year from enrollment, so they are worth claiming in the first few months
rather than saving.

Two things this is not. It is not a requirement: the courses teach technique that works with
stock plugins, and no lesson depends on owning a specific third-party tool. And it is not a
storefront, since Hyperbits does not sell partner software, it negotiates the discount and
passes it to enrolled students.
