Vocal Kitchen

6 sessions · Mondays, Wednesdays · 2hr each

Great Vocals Served Up Here

Kitchens are where beat-makers get their hands dirty. It’s where creatives go to play with their food. You won’t learn the secrets of recording a great vocal at a recording school. Music production means understanding the instrument, how to record it, and how to communicate and work with artists to coax that once in a lifetime performance that can bring a track to life.

Prerequisites: DAW Core Skills or equivalent proficiency in your platform.
