In our Summer Music Recording Camp, teens ages 13-18 will learn the basics of music recording and engineering from the very fundamentals to intermediate level techniques, all while using professional-grade equipment and technology housed in Mason School of Music’s own Recording Studio.
Part of Summer Music Intensive Week, June 18-22, the program will be led by Mason School of music faculty member Dr. Andrew Cote and Mason Music alum/ recording artist Thom Routon. Working in groups, students will complete the week by presenting finished recordings to family and friends in a mock “release party” event.
“Our program will touch on topics such as the basic principles of sound waves and how they are created, and how sound is ‘captured’ and transmitted through recording equipment via signal flow,” explained Mr. Routon. “Students will learn techniques that will allow them to record and organize acoustic and electronic tracks into mix sessions.”
If you have ever expressed interest in how songs are recorded, and/or if you would like to take your musicianship to the next level, then the Summer Music Recording Camp is the perfect place to learn the science behind the sound! Even if you do not sing or play an instrument, all it takes is a love for music to learn the in’s and out’s of music technology and production.
“I take pride in sharing the process of recording, mixing, and mastering a song from scratch,” exclaimed Mr. Routon, “because it provides so many opportunities for the artist to truly make the music their own!”
A Residential Option is also available for this program!
