How To Become an Audio Producer Skipping College?

Опубликовано 14 марта 2024, 2:32

Sac Academy was opened to give individuals a chance to dive into the music industry. Our instructors are highly qualified and built both programs based on real-life experiences in the studio with artists. They both wrote their own curriculums to teach in the style of “on the job training”. Sac Academy stands for small class sizes and hands-on learning. We are proud to offer a program in Audio Engineering and A&R Music Production.

Sound is a very basic and simple process, which has become seemingly complicated with today’s digital technology. Led by expert staff members, Sac Academy is committed to bringing the simplicity of sound recording and A&R Music Producing into the minds of today’s youth.

This video depicts a session consisting of horns, strings, full rhythm section, and 3 vocalists recorded “live” in the same room and without the use of headphones. That is what students will do in our programs.
