Diploma of Music Industry (Technical Production)

Students will develop sound recording and mixing skills, an understanding of the music business, music production techniques and a solid grounding in all aspects of working with commercial music in a recording studio, broadcast facility or any other commercial sound facility.

You will learn both the technical and creative side of the recording process and how to work with others in the studio environment while completing complex recording projects.

Theoretical lectures are complemented by practical studio demonstrations. During this program you will book our recording studios and audio workstations for your own practical sessions - hands-on studio time is the only way to learn.
