The library itself is chock full of courses that stem from beginner to expert, but if you're just starting out, let me tell you that the only things you need to learn here are the essentials.
Then get outta there.
I didn't really like any of the Synth Programming or EDM Production Technique guides, because most of them felt too complex and abstract, or spoke too specifically about synthesisers not within reach (et tu Massive?)
The reason why you should stop so early is for a few reasons. Firstly, because it's bloody expensive without a uni pass, but more importantly, if you spend too much of your free time learning, you may not have enough time to continue working on your tracks. Making music is the best way to learn how to make music, because bad tracks help you learn how to improve, and who can fault you for it when you're just starting out?
Another reason for doing so is that there are so many free learning resources. This subreddit is one of them, and also check out izotope's Pro Audio Essentials, EDMProd, How To Make Electronic Music, Attack Magazine, ADSR Tutorials and most importantly...Google.
Learning from somewhere like Lynda to grasp all the fundamentals so you can learn the lingo and baseline. You can ask good questions, and you know how to improve. But don't get caught in a learning loop, because people want to hear them bangers.
P.S. Cancel and you get 30% off the next month the first time you do it. The videos above should take about 2 months to finish with a good amount of dedication.
