“A hands-on, in-your-face learning experience in live and studio sound!”

Sound Foundations: Classes in the essentials of live and recorded sound

Sound Foundations is something new – crash courses in audio for the uninitiated. We assume no prior knowledge. We put you in the studio for four evenings, tell you what’s really going on and give you lots of cool knobs to turn and nice microphones to play with. You leave ready to mix a band. It’s just that simple.

There are two Sound Foundations classes. Stage Sound focuses on building, setting up and running PA systems, while Studio Sound covers principles for the recording studio. Since the classes build on each other, most students take both.
