Essential Audio Gear & Recording Fundamentals
In a digital production environment, there are only a handful of things that we, as producers, can touch, hear, and interact with. It makes those things special and that is what this class is all about.
We will explore the basics of speakers, microphones, and gain-staging. We will discuss acoustics and how to get the most out of your gear. Our goal is also to empower beatmakers by de-mystifying their next trip to the music store.

The Fine Print
- This class meets LIVE on a Discord channel. You can join from wherever you have an internet connection.
- We DON'T record this class. That's what office hours are for.
- You are expected to attend or arrange to get caught up in office hours.
- Refunds. No. Not really. Sometimes we'll make a good faith exception but we are running the class based on your commitment to join and we pay a percentage of transactions on the way in and on the way out.
