Description :

Here's one for the next generation's beat makers, hit producers, and overall whiz kids! Ever wanted to roll up your sleeves and leap into a professional recording studio to learn from one of the industry's best engineers? Now is your chance!

In this four-week mini-course, students will have the chance to immerse themselves in the world of sound at The Cocoon - a gorgeous shrine in Jersey City Heights, a 1200-square foot open concept room equipped with a custom-built analog recording console, Sonor drumkit, Kawaii upright piano, guitars, amps, congas, and plenty of other gear to pick up and get creative with. 

Across the four sessions, students will nerd out about:

- how microphones and speakers work

- sound waves, frequency, and the way actual sound gets recorded

- timbre and tonality of different instruments

- diffusion, absorption, and reflection in acoustics 

As well as headier topics like cymatics (visualizing sound), the connection between sound and emotion,  and what makes a song a song? And of course, the credo is good vibrations always!
