Apply your training from your mentor to hands-on recording sessions.

“My mentor and I had a great conversation about my reading for week 7, and I had lots of questions. My mentor is so awesome and willing to talk and answer all my questions. After my lesson I was lucky enough once again to sit in on a recording session that was micing up a drum set and a guitar cabinet. So I helped the rest of the night with the session and was able to see everything we just talked about in the lesson.”

Learn how to work with clients from the recording engineers themselves.

"This was week 3 with my mentor and I learned a lot that I had previously overlooked. For instance, I was unaware that when recording guitar amplifiers, dynamic microphones are recommended vs. condensers. One of the studio engineers and I experimented with micing a guitar amp with 3 different microphones at once. After this, we recorded a bit of guitar, where the engineer had me experiment with mixing the 3 recorded signals together in order to get a nice, and blended, guitar sound. He also showed me how you could get different effects by messing with the EQ on the board in the recording control room. After that, we watched a documentary about Tom Dowd and his influence pertaining to the evolution of recording and the invention of the multi-track recorder. However, midway through the documentary clients arrived to finish mixing a track they had been working on with the studio engineer. It was interesting to hear what these artists concerns were, as well as to see and hear one of my mentors’ accommodate them. It was an informative, eventful evening. Things are progressing smoothly with my mentor. I am learning a lot every time I set foot in the door to my mentors studio, and I feel comfortable with asking any questions I might have. Each week I am in the Recording Connection I grow more and more excited."
