In this focused two-hour workshop with an academic and/or ambassadors, students will develop their skills in planning, undertaking and processing their music recording. All commercial music staff are active as performers, producers, composers and/or researchers. Students will experience our purpose-built facilities, including professional-grade rehearsal, recording, and/or performance spaces.

For this session students need to bring their recording project (as Logic Pro X file) or backing track (as WAV file). They will get tips on vocal tracking techniques, and record vocals in a professional grade recording studio.

This session can take place simultaneously with a Production workshop if you have students of different disciplines.
