The Recording Workshop – TRW Music Production Courses & Sound Engineering Courses

Looking to start a career in Sound Engineering or Music Production? Take a look at the TRW Sound Engineering & Music Production Diploma courses.

If you are you completely new to the world of Music Production or Sound Engineering our Music Production courses & Sound Engineering courses will teach you all you need to know.

Maybe you’re totally new to Music Production and Sound Engineering but have always had a passion to get involved in music recording, or you are a musician whose played in a studio but has been kept well away from all that ‘technical stuff’. Nobody wanted to show you what’s going on anyway and you have never been on any sound engineering courses or music production courses.

Take a look at our Sound Engineering & Music Production Diploma courses.

What if you are a Frustrated Musician, Engineer/ Producer or DJ?

Take a look at our DJ Tutorial courses, music production courses and sound engineering courses.

You’ve already had some experience, but you are frustrated by not being able to get a great sound from your mix? It doesn’t matter how hard you try, after all the ‘advice’ you’re given, what music software or hardware equipment you buy or who you hire in terms of studios, engineers or producers, you just don’t get the sound you want. Despite reading sound engineering & music production articles on how to get a great sound or watching videos, the dream of actually hearing for real what is ‘playing in your head’ eludes you.

Well it does not matter what background you have from total beginner to professional musician or someone who already has some sound engineering experience, here at the Recording Workshop sound engineering courses & music production courses we can train you from the ground up.

What can the Recording Workshop sound engineering courses & music production courses do for me?

We offer sound engineering courses & music production courses with training that is amenable to everyone regardless of age, experience or culture and ensure to the best of our ability that you leave us with a definite plan to move forward in your career or hobby, whether it is to get work in the music industry, or set up your own studio or simply have a better understanding of the music production process.

Will it be a Small Studio with 20 or more Students all trying to get a glimpse at what is being demonstrated?

Absolutely NOT! Having attended sound engineering courses & music production courses such as these ourselves we totally understand how frustrating it is when you just cannot see exactly what is going on. It’s a waste of your time, the teacher’s time and more importantly your hard earned cash. So we restrict the number of members to a maximum of five per session, or a maximum of two people per workstation on the advanced courses.

Let’s take a brief look at the sound engineering courses & music production courses we have on offer.

For further information on each sound engineering course or music production course, click the links either here on this page on in the right hand column.

The TRW Sound Engineering Course & Music Production Foundation Course

This course is for everyone, even for those who feel they have a reasonable knowledge of the basics. You would be amazed at some of the gaps in your knowledge which you might not realize you have, and that could be one of the main reasons you are struggling to get the sound you so desire.

In this course we take you step-by-step though all the equipment you would expect to find in an audio recording studio, explain how it works and you then have a chance to use it yourself. We start off with analog or traditional equipment and then move onto computer based digital audio. Once you have completed this course you can then move onto the TRW advanced sound engineering courses & music production courses.

Which Advanced Sound Engineering Courses or Music Production Course or Courses should I attend?

This really depends on the kind of music you wish to record and produce, whether you intend to work with musicians playing traditional instruments, or electronics and computer based music. If you already have a clear idea of the kind of music you wish to produce we can provide you with a course track which will help you achieve your goals. All the advanced sound engineering courses & music production courses are very practical and most are based around a computer digital audio workstation (or DAW) with a maximum of two students per station. We currently have six available workstations.

Cubase Tutorial Music Production course

Cubase is known as a software music sequencer that runs on either a PC or Apple Mac. It can record many tracks where each track can represent one instrument or sound. It is the digital equivalent of the multi-track reel-to-reel tape machine.

If you attended the Sound Engineering & Music Production Foundation Course you will have already gained some basic knowledge on this music sequencer software, however on this course you will attain an in depth knowledge on all aspects of this powerful and versatile application.

Logic, Pro-Tools and Reason Music Production Courses

Similar to Cubase in the fact that all of these packages are software music sequencers, but they are each created by different software houses. We teach all of these sequencer packages, each as individual courses as they are all used in both professional and semi-professional music production. The versatile engineer needs to be competent in their operation in order to be able to take on work for any client. However if your intention is to set up and use your own studio to record and produce music then it may not be necessary to attend all these courses.

Music Sampling Techniques – Music Production course

A sampler is a device (either hardware or software) that captures small sections of audio which can then be triggered by a keyboard or other device. It is used widely in the music industry to add some ‘interest’ to the track, however many tracks are entirely sample based.

In this course you will go through the process of recording, editing and building a music track based entirely on samples. You will also be using one of the sequencers above (usually Cubase or logic) to put this track together and this will help you appreciate how the equipment works together.

Past students have included many professional DJ’s, artists, A&R personnel from Warner Music, BMG Publishing, Mother Records, Polygram, Jive Records, Nude Records, Island Records, Parlophone & EMI Records, Independiente & Decca Records etc….producers as well as novices all of whom have found it very useful. Students have had placements in studios such as Mayfair, Metropolis, Sphere Studios, The Dairy and the BBC.
