I'm currently interested in studying music to be a producer with beats and a songwriter and was wondering if anyone knows any good schools that specialize with any of these that could assist me with my goals or if I would be better off studying on my own? So far I seen alot of schools that offer audio egineering/production and was wondering if they will give me the skills I need or would it be a waste?

Hi! I am not sure of specific schools but yes, there are many good ones that can help you though they are not cheap. I know of many good beat makers/producers who learned on their own by just buying gear, experimenting, reading alot and hooking up with other people. Schools are good for people who may need a good kick to get going and need structure to learn things. So you have to ask yourself if you are motivated and self-disciplined enough to DIY.

Full Sail. Orlando, FL. One of the best in the country
Audio schools can certainly be helpful, although I haven't attended one myself. I've found that working around studios and in my home studio has been the best learning experience for me. I'd recommend an internship at a studio before audio school as it doesn't cost anything but your time.
