What you learn in Music Production School DamVibes
Sound Engineering Lessons
Roll up your sleeves and get stuck in to all the technical goings on of the recording studio and develop core practical sound engineering skills through sound engineering lessons. In our music production school you’ll get your hands on with state of the art recording technology, in a warm, friendly and encouraging environment. Gain a broad range of experience in every step of the recording and production process – we cover both technical and creative processes relevant not only to an engineer but the modern recording musician, including:
- Mic choice / placement
- Signal flow / cabling
- DAW operation / housekeeping
- Sequencing / editing
- Approaches to Mixing
- Hardware effects / processing and Software Plugins
- Mastering
- Managing a recording session
- Routing and bussing signals
- Monitoring
- Safe studio practice
- Using the music studio as an instrument (composing in the studio)
Music Production through your instrument
Already play an instrument (solo or as part of a group) and want to expand your skills / broaden your horizons? Our music production school acts as a great hub for bands / artists already active as musicians wanting to take control of their own productions and level up their technical abilities.
Plug in / mic up and see how a little practical knowledge and studio fieldcraft can change your approach to your art, enhance expression and give confidence. Through practice of reflection, critique and discussion you’ll improve your critical listening abilities and group communication, feeding back into the creative process full circle.
Manipulation of the sound - audio
Don’t play an instrument? Not into music? No problem! See how sound and how we manipulate it is integral to many sectors outside of the music industry, from radio and film to spoken word and theater. You’ll see how audio technology has developed over the last century and that common tools / techniques straddle boundaries of genre and medium, to deliver the message and at the end of the day – enhance the experience for the listener / end consumer.
In our Music Production School you will be using a vast array of technology – learn how we can capture / manipulate sounds, and apply a near endless array of both creative and corrective processing to affect the result. You’ll see the fluidity of the roles of the artist, technician and producer in a space that is a training ground for all 3 disciplines – and gain an insight into the development of the approach to structure, form, style and instrumentation – via all the technical steps along the way.
And if you want to create your own piece of music but don’t know how? No problem – you’ll leave the course with your own composition, having been involved in every step of the way.
Real world - this is not a drill!
You’ll be provided with materials from real sessions to practice your skills and take home – and if you need advised as to what equipment you need, no problem! Our music production school has Gavin, an experienced pro audio consultant (working extensively in an advisory roll to major recording studios / music schools / universities) – able to advise on anything from computers and software to microphones and hardware – with preferential rates at local pro audio retailers. You can check one of my tracks.
Gavin has a broad range experience guiding students of all ages and abilities through everything from the basics of music / music technology, through secondary school core qualifications all the way through to preparing them for FE / HE college / University courses and out into the big wide world of the creative industries. He has a passion to educate and empower.
