Music Industry Hacker University is the first and only online school that offers a comprehensive education in all things the music business. From the business side of things like music marketing and artist management to the more creative aspects like songwriting and music production, we cover it all.

As a preface, I'm not a sound pro--more like a hobbyist who is getting a bit more serious about all of this (and who loves the tech). That out of the way, my wife is an elementary school teacher. Each year they put on a play for which the first and second-graders perform a play, sing songs, and do a bit of dancing.

These recording arts schools typically charge $30,000 for tuition. ( http://www.lafilm.e…  )

How many graduates are actually working afterwards? And think of the equipment you could buy for 30K... You could buy a Shadow Hills Compressor, a Manley Massive Passive Mastering EQ, work station, etc and learn by doing.

So I was tweaking tracks today, eventually I got around to the kick, and I liked it just fine, it was very well recorded so I didn't need to do much... but I thought about a trick I used to use back in the days of 12 ft consoles and 2 ton tape decks - and I'm betting that Chris, Kurt, Boswell, Boulder, Hawk, and other fellow travelers of that bygone age will remember this one..

Hi, I am Ricky Di Giacomo. I am 17 years old and currently a Junior in High School. Like many of you, music is my life, my passion, and my love. I strive everyday to become better at what I do.

We get questions on this topic pretty frequently. Some of them are specific to particular instruments, but I thought I'd post some general thoughts I have on the subject that I didn't want distracting other threads.

A very interesting place for a recording studio in Scottsdale, AZ. This abandoned elementary school was re-purposed into a full blown recording studio, complete with a photography studio attached.

I am trying to get the best sound out of my acoustic electric guitar. I know using a studio mic would get a better sound but this is what I have. I'm running it straight through the interface but it sounds kinda bad. I was wondering if there are any good VST's that can help or any suggestions to what I can do to better the sound! Thanks!

Are they still in business? Atlas Pro Audio on longer carries them and gives a phone number and a yahoo.com email.

Hello, I'm new to this forum. I have been researching the tech of music for a bout a year, picking up gear like a Firestudio Mobile, Sm58, and other ways to satisfy recording needs. Recording.org was the forum that seemed to have a Live Sound community. Cutting to the point..
