Aims
To enhance students' knowledge of the equipment used in a Recording Studio and hence address the practical issues arising from recording using a control surface. Also to allow students to gain experience in using both hardware and software audio devices deployed in digital audio recording
Learning Outcomes
1.
Appreciate Recording Studio equipment levels
2.
Develop a usable audio signal chain using effects within the studio environment
3.
Describe and analyse the Glyn Johns method of microphone placement
4.
Produce an audio media package
