Live Sound Engineering

Through our revolutionary mentor-apprentice (extern) approach, the Recording Connection partners with hundreds of established audio engineers and music producers to train our students on-the-job. These professionals are located in real recording studios across the United States, as well as in Canada, Australia and the U.K., and many of them work with Platinum-selling and/or Grammy-winning artists. As a result, we are able to provide our students with world-class, one-on-one training in hundreds of recording studios across the globe, giving them a real chance for breaking into the music industry.

DESPITE WHAT YOU MAY HAVE BEEN TOLD, YOU CAN'T BREAK INTO THE INDUSTRY BY SITTING IN A CLASSROOM OR STUDYING ONLINE, AND YOU CAN'T LEARN AUDIO ENGINEERING FROM A BOOK. THE ONLY WAY TO LEARN IT IS BY DOING IT.

That’s why we put you inside a real recording studio under the personal guidance of a mentor, someone who has worked in the industry for years and can help you achieve your career goals as a music producer, audio engineer, live audio engineer or recording artist. All your training and supplies are included for a low tuition of just $9,400.
