I make beats but I'd like to really know what I'm doing and write my own songs and play guitar and use a midi keyboard and have it all work together

where should I start for learning music theory

read a textbook? from YouTube?

There’s 80 brazillion videos on YouTube explaining it at varying difficulties. Watch some

you also don’t need any knowledge of music theory to make beats.

All this information at your fingertips and you decide to ask a bunch of teenagers instead of material put out by accredited professionals on the Internet. Imagine.

Jacobs Vocal Academy on youtube is quality though. Teaches ear training, numerous singing techniques, music theory, and pitch training among others.

man theres a lot of bullshit thats just ineffective or straight up bad to learn from

He was obviously looking for someone who already knows whats good

And how did that someone else come to find out what’s good? I imagine OP researched how to produce. Besides, I said accredited professionals.

Regardless, I’m jus sayin s*** is too accessible in 2020 fam when you can help yourself.
