<br>While lots of students pertain to the audio program to make beats for modern music, they are often amazed at the of profession choices in the field. As a sound technician, it’s your responsibility to put together, operate and maintain the technical devices utilized to tape, amplify, improve, mix or reproduce noise. You’ll identify the sound requirements for a provided job or circumstance and carry out the proper actions to produce this noise. Sound technicians are needed in a series of markets consisting of: advertising, audio recordings, broadcasting (radio or tv), movie, and live performance (theatre, music, dance). So, while making beats is taught and encouraged, this program focuses on numerous other skills that will allow you to make a living in the industry of your choosing.<br>

<br>During the first year of audio study, trainees will discover: the physics of sound; the science of acoustics; the tools used to collect, store, procedure, and deliver sound products; taping session treatments; company networking. The trainees work separately and in groups completing weekly recording jobs in class and outside of class, and prepare presentations of their work, and presenting their projects to the other trainees. They will function as a team in tape-recording sessions, and produce recordings on a range of various equipment types.<br>
<br>During the second year of audio research study, the focus is on an internship class model. The learning environment is set up like a real-world studio complex, in which the students work both individually and in teams on a range of taping projects. They check in, keep hours, schedule their own project sessions, and assign and share the studio resources. The students then share the outcomes of their recording projects with the other trainees, instructing and addressing concerns about their experience creating the recording. Troubleshooting, electronics repair work, and studio upkeep are learned and practiced by the students throughout the year.<br>
