Goal: To provide experience in the professional recording studio environment.

Content: Learn the tools of the trade and the process. Tools include audio signal path and gain stage basics, microphone types/uses, preamps, compressors, EQ, and reverb - what they are and do. Activities will focus on how technology serves the Artist/Producer. Students learn how to set up for sessions (as well as tear down/properly store gear), how to run a session and develop a musical vision as a producer. Several workshop-length sessions in a professional studio will complement the classroom and online learning.
