Home studio recording workshop at Make Great Music

I've been an audio recording geek since 1987: From a 4-track tape recorder setup in my high school bedroom to a professional studio intern in college to a music professional riding the digital home recording studio evolution. I enjoy sharing my knowledge through lively, down-to-earth, hands-on workshops.

What You'll Learn

  • Lots of "quick-and-easy" tips
  • How to fill in the gaps of your knowledge
  • Improve the sound of your songs and your recording experience
  • Computer/software setup, mic technique, gain structure
  • Real use of EQ, plugins, virtual instruments, MIDI
  • Mixing as you go
  • Sample rate, latency, bit depth

Hands-on "lab" style: Bring your laptop, software, audio interface, headphones and gear. Flexible syllabus so you can guide what is taught. Small class size limited to 5 people.
