Singers and band members get all the attention, but the technicians and producers who work inside a recording studio are just as important to the creation of a great song. This program introduces viewers to the experts and equipment at the heart of a sound studio. Topics include acoustics, soundproofing, pitch and frequency, microphones, the mixing console, multi-track recording, and the overall significance of the control room. Interviews with professional sound recordists, mixers, and musicians include material on ProTools and other sound design software, the transition from valve to solid state circuits, and other subjects familiar to industry insiders. Correlates to all National CTE Organizational Standards (including the provisions of the Perkins Act).
