We offer several audio engineering and music production programs. These include customized “one one one” private instruction classes with just you and the instructor as well as small classes for students who prefer group settings. Program hours include intensive instruction, both hands on and lecture, learning lab time to practice your new skills, and unassisted “mixing” time where you’re in the driver’s seat as you would be in the real world of audio engineering.
Our (100 hour) audio engineering programs INCLUDE AVID PRO TOOLS SOFTWARE AND A HARDWARE INTERFACE which easily installs on most home computers.
