With decades of experience and know-how behind numerous consoles in the world of Pop, Indie, Hip Hop, Metal, R&B, Jazz, Acoustic, and much more, instructor, Taurus James, will teach the fundamentals behind many popular DAWs.
TRAINING IN OUR STUDIOS
Many courses are spent inside classrooms or pseudo studio mock-ups that students are allowed to practice on infrequently. In our program, students are immersed into a learning environment that is a busy, in-use recording facility with 4 different studios utilized by engineers and artists every day.
ONE-ON-ONE EDUCATION
For our advanced and highly specialized classes like this one, a one-on-one education is ideal. One-on-one's allow for a low stress environment and the opportunity to personalize conversations and assignments.
WORKABLE SCHEDULE FOR ANYONE
Because the class is one-on-one, we can tailor each schedule class session around your schedule! This isn't always an option for college, university classes or even some of our group courses here at Clear Track. So if your schedule is very full, we can make this work for you!
HANDS-ON APPLICATION
When it comes to working in Pro Tools, the most important aspect is one's ABILITY TO DO. And while both theory and a substantial curriculum are provided in this course, we find it absolutely necessary for anyone striving to be an audio engineer to learn by DOING! Through practical application, our students actively use Pro Tools while teachers who know the ins and outs of the software are there to guide each student through it!
REASONABLE TUITION
Our program offers a modern, hands-on education in Pro Tools for a fraction of the price that you'd find at most major colleges or universities. For example, collegiate students are required to pay $70,000+ in Tuition which includes Admission Fees, Registration Fees, Student Fees, Technology Fee, Books & Supplies, Housing, etc. We do not have any pre-requisite classes nor any additional fees so we can keep our tuition very low.
COMPLETION OF COURSE
At the end of the 5-week and 10-week course, we provide each student a certificate that indicates the successful completion of our course! However, the goal of our course is not just give out certificates. The TRUE goal of our course is to provide each student with the data, tools and knowledge to competently start and operate their own home studio OR know how to come into an existing pro-studio and use it to record and create music. Many of our past students have gone on to build and run their own studio, work for professional recording facilities and even radio stations!
INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY
After successful completion of our course, students automatically qualify for an internship! Much like the music industry internships you would find in major studios throughout New York, Los Angeles and Nashville, our interns are expected to work hard with a checklist of daily, basic duties which include setting up equipment, getting coffee for clients, etc. It is an unpaid position where one would have the opportunity to build rapport with the engineers and eventually to sit in on, observe and assist engineers in their recording, mixing and mastering sessions!
