Register for our recording masterclass – as part of ARIA Week 2013, in conjunction with Studios 301 and MusicNSW.
Australian Recording Industry Association Ltd (ARIA) and Studios 301 have teamed up with musicNSW to create a special workshop for emerging musicians and producers.
Less Auto / More Tune is a 2-part Masterclass on how to maximise your time in the studio, focusing on music production and recording in a studio environment. These workshops are a great pportunity for emerging musicians to see how an artist and producer work together on a professional recording in a professional setting.
The first workshop will be Unmixing Jagwar Ma. One of Jagwar’s Ma’s mix engineers, Anthony Garvin will go through how he mixed one of the tracks from ARIA-nominated album Howlin’, then Adam Maggs from Ableton Liveschool will demonstrate some in-depth techniques for remixing. This Masterclass will be of particular value to emerging producers and electronic artists.
The second, Under The Hood with Abbe May will be a Pro Tools recording Masterclass, and will provide you with an insightful opportunity to view the processes involved in a professional recording session at Studios 301 between the highly experienced engineer Simon Todkill and the ARIA nominated artist Abbe May.
