MUS 595 - Music Recording Session Practicum

Semester Hours: 4

Students will work with a professional recording engineer as an apprentice for a semester. Students will first demonstrate the thorough knowledge of the science of sound waves and how they can be manipulated to achieve desirable results in the recording of music. Students will then learn about appropriate microphones for specific kinds of record-ing sessions. Students will also gain appropriate background in recording software. Following this, students will, under the supervision of a professional recording en-gineer, run musical recording sessions from start to finish, with the outcome being the production of a professional-grade recording. Prerequisites: MUS 122 and MUS 122P.
