Audio Engineering

• Our audio engineering course covers a range of topics related to the recording, mixing, and mastering of sound. Here is a general overview of what students can expect to learn in our audio engineering course:

Signal Processing:

Students will learn about signal processing equipment and techniques, including equalization, compression, limiting, and gating. They will also learn how to use these techniques to shape the sound of a recording. Students will learn about the different types of audio signals, including analog and digital, and how they are used in recording and mixing audio. Students will learn about the properties of sound waves, frequency, amplitude, phase, and how sound interacts with different materials.

Audio Equipment and Technology:

This includes microphones, speakers, amplifiers, mixing consoles, digital audio workstations (DAWs), and other equipment used in recording, mixing, and mastering.

Recording Techniques:

Students will learn how to set up microphones, select the right microphone for a particular recording situation, and capture high-quality audio.

Mixing Techniques:

Students will learn how to mix individual tracks together, balance levels, pan sounds across the stereo field, add effects, and create a cohesive mix.

Mastering Techniques:

Students will learn how to prepare a final mix for distribution, including equalization, compression, limiting, and other mastering processes.

Live Sound Engineering: 

Students will learn how to set up and operate sound systems for live events, including concerts, conferences, and other events.

Business Skills: 

Students will learn about the business side of audio engineering, including contracts, copyright law, licensing, and how to market their skills.

Overall, an audio engineering course provides students with a strong foundation in the technical and creative aspects of sound recording, mixing, and mastering, as well as the business skills needed to succeed in the industry.
