WHAT ARE THEY?

We are now providing an opportunity for those wanting to improve their engineering and production skills by working one on one with an engineer in our Writers' Corner. This position is synced to the engineer's digital facilities, allowing creators to have their own screen while sitting next to the engineer, enabling them to easily share screens. Those in the Writers' Corner have full access to all our plugins and virtual instruments, and can be set up on their chosen DAW (digital audio workstation) in a relaxed, friendly environment.

 

​

WHO?
This may suit new-comers wanting to learn the basics to get started on projects at home, an intermediate seeking tips on how to manually adjust filters, automation etc... or a student wanting to explore a new hobby. We are not expert professionals, but we can defiantly help to grow your production skills to a higher level.

Across the July school holiday period we are providing one-on-one sessions with our in house engineer for youth between the ages of 14-18 years. 

This is basically the same set up as our 'One On One Lessons', however, with the studio based holiday tutorial, we can run your child through anything within a small music studio that they may be interested in. That be how a studio operates, the technical side to setting up live sound, mixing, mastering, audio production, starting out in musical production... you say it, we can work out how to do it. 

Here are some of the things we can take you through:

​

  • How to create a realistic drum sound from scratch

  • How to import loops, patches and samples

  • How to create your own loops, patches and samples

  • How to modulate, automate, side chain, gain staging

  • How to add processing effects onto your tracks in post - production

  • The basics of mixing your tracks

  • The basics of mastering

  • Take you through the understanding of how a small recording studio works
