The Best Audio Engineering Schools

November 18, 2011

The best audio engineering schools are not found at famous universities that charge an arm and a leg for a semester's tuition, nor at those trade schools you see advertised on bus stops. The best schools are the ones that give you the most bang for your buck. Do colleges and trade schools provide students with unlimited hands-on experience, one-on-one mentoring, and a plethora of free job assistance? No, but Recording Connection does – all for the fraction of the cost of a traditional four-year college or even a trade school.

Many big-name colleges talk a big game about their fancy music programs, and maybe compared to other four-year colleges they are right. At the same time, college isn't what it once was. Employers don't care for your piece of paper you got after spending four years and tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars – they want workers that are ready. You don't learn audio engineering out of a textbook, you don't learn it from long classroom lectures, and you don't learn it from taking a bunch of unnecessary electives. To make it in the music industry, you need quality hands on experience.

The best audio engineering schools aren't really “schools.” The Recording Connection eliminates the crowded classes and years of exam cramming. Here your classroom will be a fully operational recording studio where you will be trained by an experience mentor in a one-on-one setting. Forget the text book, you will get your education by working on real studio projects alongside your mentor!

At Recording Connection you will learn all of the equipment, tools, software, and techniques found in modern recording studios as well as the business end of the music industry. Your mentor and the studio are available to you almost as much as you want and are ready for. Impress your mentor and the other studio professionals and you have just begun to build professional connections. A strong professional network is what you really need to succeed in the music industry because finding a job is all about who you know.

Outside of being able to bring real world experience to your job right out of school, having developed invaluable professional connections, and spending a fraction of what you would have for a more underwhelming education – the Recording Connection provides every grad with a full year of free job assistance training! What other audio engineering schools can match that kind of dedication to their students?
