“I’m loving the course on Paul Chambers style. Would love more specific courses tailored in the same way for other bassists. A similar courses on Ray Brown would be great. I’d love to see similar offerings for contemporary electric jazz bass as well. Maybe a focused course on Hadrien Feraud? Just throwing that out there”

“I recently joined Open Studio, and I'm thoroughly impressed! This platform is a game-changer for anyone passionate about art. From the diverse range of courses to the supportive community, Open Studio offers an unparalleled experience. The instructors are top-notch, providing clear instruction and valuable insights that have significantly improved my skills. Overall, Open Studio gets five stars from me. It's not just a platform; it's a supportive environment that fosters creativity and learning. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore their artistic potential as a beginner or experienced, it's a sure way to refine your craft.”

“So glad to be back on the OsPro platform again since the waiting list was recently reopened. This is by far the best learning resource for all Jazz musicians from the beginner and amateur to the professional. You will gain so much from these fantastic teachers. I personally benefit from the structure of weekly classes that make it easy to follow a dedicated pathway. As a Double bassist a big shout out to Bob Deboo whose lessons impart a wealth of knowledge in a relaxed, fun atmosphere. Lastly, in terms of value for money I get 4 lessons per week on Double bass but also dip into all the other courses such as the Pentatonic course by Adam Maness. Definitely value for money.”

“Instructors are nice and knowledgeable. The workflow continued to be an issue (mainly there is no digesteable calendar i can import - i have to create an entirely new flow every week - I have a ton of meetings and rely on my calendar religiously to tell me where I need to be). I reached out to Kaleb and he encouraged me to make my own calendar invite every week ... which is just silly for a $100 / mo subscription. I then brought up this issue to Dan and he couldn't even be bothered to respond. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to buy into the OSPro community when the founder won't even acknowldege my friction point. Seems like a good platform for those retired or who have less demanding positions.”

Hi Ryan, Apologies on the delayed reply and I'm sorry your experience was less than ideal. We have been taking into account all of the recommended features and deploying them as soon as they are ready. I'm happy to say that we will be launching the ability to add the sessions to your calendar (GCal, Outlook or Apple Cal) very soon. Best, Dan Martin Co-founder, Open Studio

“Really great resource. Tons of great lessons and tutorials. Lessons from all the great musicians is very fantastic. The synced transcription feature is great! Only real criticism might be the website. Layout It's always super difficult to get back to the lessons I like. The Website throws me off and the layout is such that I can't figure how to get back to peter's weekly lesson e.g. Maybe It's me but after a couple of years it still takes me several minutes to get there for some reason. Also the search feature never seems to bring the result I'm looking for. Maybe that has changed recently, as I haven't tried it for a while. Website seems slightly annoyingly complex...very minor complaint. Overall I love what you guys are doing, keep it up!!!”

“Though I have had fewer opportunities to participate in events on line since the end of the pandemic “lock-down”, I have continued my membership because I feel the occasional “drive by” opportunities to watch a video or take a live session with Adam or Peter is well worth the price of the membership and I know OS is always there as a resource when I need one. And I still think Adam is one of the best educators I’ve ever seen or met; and I was in education at the high school and college level for 37 years knew and observed many, many educators.”

“I’m really satisfied with the course I bought ! I’m a bit sad I cannot purchase other courses, the membership is the only option although I would rather buy some specific lessons instead. Anyway, again, great course, great teaching, good content !”

“Unparalleled teaching material at your fingertips! The content is fantastic, as it the way it is taught! I thought learning via videos would be limited, but I was very wrong! My only criticism is it can be overwhelming with so many options, and it's really difficult to figure out which course to pick. I like the piano pathway course which gives a clear plan, I think it would be good for more stuff like this which helps give a clear pathway based on various goals.”

“Hello! I really love it. I practice Jazz Piano on Open Studio and my playing really starts to sound good thanks to you guys. And it makes so much fun. I have 3 recommendations: 1) I didn't like that during the look and feel change of the Open Studio website all of my progress in my current course was erased. I had to mark every lesson as completed again. Please consider this in future updates. 2) Some of the courses lead to a dead link. For example "Jazz Piano Fundamentals" and "Jazz Piano Transcriptions | Vol. 1". You may want to fix this. 3) Could you make a more theory heavy course? I just started with the Jazz Chords course and it works for me. Adam always mentiones that we don't need to unterstand the theory to play these chords. But actually, it would help me to unterstand some of the motivations behind the voice leading. If there is a theory course in the higher levels and i haven't found it yet, please forget my suggestion please. You are doing a great. I love your work and passion. Hava a nice day, David Enajat”

“There's a ton of material, but while teachers repeatedly mention "get this in your ear and fingers" the resources don't actually help with that. As a metaphor, imagine an exercise class where they tell you all about the push-up, the benefits of the push-up, why it works, how it works, 20 alterations, and intricacies of the push-up, but never make you do 100 of them every day? I don't want theory, I want practice. Y'all should do guided practices, where you really TELL people what to do. : 1. "do these scales, in this pattern, at this BPM, increase to this BPM" 2. "do these voicings, over these changes 10 times." 3. "transcribe this, play it in these three scales" ^Guided shedding. Day-by-day shed.”
