What students say about John
John is simply the best EDM production instructor I’ve had. His depth of knowledge across sound design, production techniques, and post-processing is incredible, but what sets him apart is his ability to break down concepts in a way that actually clicks for students. If the role involves teaching Serum, there’s no one better suited for it.
John's an exceptional teacher and producer. His insights stem from a deep technical knowledge of the tools he teaches as well as a formal musical education, training and background. He has helped me on numerous occasions elevate my music to the next level with his input. He is truly savvy and anyone who gets the chance to work with him should take it without hesitation.
Thanks to John I learned the ins and outs of Ableton, how to work with analog synthesizers, FM synthesis, and so much more. I actually purchased Serum thanks to him. I used to be intimidated by simply looking at it and he was able to help me master it.
John is super cool and an amazing teacher. Very helpful in all aspects. I still use many of the techniques he taught me to this day. You are in for a treat with what this Serum 2 course has to offer.
Huge shoutout to John aka Hello Ego for being an incredible mentor throughout my sound design journey. From basic shapes and FM synthesis to Serum 2 techniques and hidden features, he helped push my creativity and production skills to another level.
John was one of my favorite teachers for the brief period of time I was at ICON. He is a super knowledgeable guy who knows all the ins and outs of serum and loves sharing what he knows. You could talk with him for hours about workflows and unique quirks that serum has to offer and I guarantee you will only be scratching the surface of what he knows

COMMON QUESTIONS
FAQ
-
Yes. Master Serum 2 is built entirely around Serum 2 and its features. If you currently own Serum 1, the upgrade to Serum 2 is free through Xfer Records at xferrecords.com. If you don't own either version, you'll need to purchase Serum 2 separately.
-
Both — and it's designed that way on purpose. The course starts from absolute zero (loading the plugin, understanding the interface, building your first 5 presets) and builds progressively through to advanced techniques like wavetable creation and granular reprocessing. If you're experienced, skip Modules 0-6 and jump straight into the oscillator deep dives at module 7. The structure lets you enter at your level.
-
Almost certainly. Most producers who 'know Serum' have only used the wavetable oscillator — one of five oscillator types. Modules 7-14 cover sample, multisample, granular, and spectral synthesis in dedicated deep dives. Module 15 alone has 23 videos on sound design across 17 categories and 6 genres. And Module 16 covers wavetable creation from scratch, resampling, and advanced techniques that most Serum users have never touched. Even if you skip the foundations, there are 50+ videos of content you haven't seen.
-
Most courses front-load theory and delay hands-on work, so you lose momentum before you get to the good stuff. Master Serum 2 is different: every single module ends with you building a preset from scratch. You're making sounds from lesson one, not watching theory for 10 hours first. The build-as-you-learn structure keeps you engaged because you're constantly creating, not just consuming.
-
30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. Work through the first few modules. If Master Serum 2 doesn't genuinely change how you understand and use Serum 2, email us and we'll refund you in full. We're confident in the course — that's why we make the guarantee simple.
-
Immediately after purchase. You'll receive your login details via email within minutes and can start the first module right away.
-
Forever. This is a one-time purchase with lifetime access. As Serum 2 evolves and we add new content or updates, you'll get those automatically — no extra charge.
-
Serum 2 works as a VST/AU plugin in any major DAW — Ableton Live, FL Studio, Logic Pro, Bitwig, Studio One, Cubase, Reaper, and others. As long as you can install Serum 2 in your software, you're good.
-
Significantly. Serum 2 added five new oscillator types (sample, multisample, granular, spectral, and a refined wavetable engine), a clip sequencer, arpeggiator, new FX modules, and a completely redesigned mixer with buss routing. If you only know Serum 1, you're using a fraction of what the synth can do. This course covers everything new — plus the features most Serum 1 users never fully explored.
-
The course is fully self-paced — there's no schedule or deadline. With 80+ video lessons across 16 modules, most students who dedicate a few hours per week work through the core content in 6-8 weeks. But Module 15 (Sound Design Masterclass) alone is something you'll come back to for months as you explore different genres and techniques.
-
Absolutely. The course is structured progressively, but you're free to jump to any module. If you already understand the basics, go straight to Module 7 (Oscillator Deep Dive) or Module 15 (Sound Design Masterclass). Each module is self-contained enough to work on its own.
-
The course teaches synthesis principles and sound design fundamentals that apply to every genre of electronic music. Module 15 includes dedicated tutorials for house, techno, dubstep, trance, future bass, ambient, cinematic, hip-hop, and trap. But the real value is understanding how synthesis works — once you have that, you can design sounds for any genre.
-
You have two support channels: the Circle community where you can ask questions and get feedback from other students and the instructor, and the Live Group Q&A Calls where you can get direct answers. You're not learning alone.
-
The course is hosted online for streaming access. This ensures you always have the latest version of every lesson. You can watch on any device with a browser — desktop, laptop, tablet, or phone.
