Vocal Production Course

Record, produce, and mix a quality vocal — mic technique, editing mastery, tuning & mixing vocals and a virtual studio visit with a vocalist at work.

Seattle students take the Vocal Production Class in a small group at our studio, or live online in the same session with the same instructor, using our specialist music collaboration software, Muse. The city has a deep electronic and independent music scene, and our teachers are part of it.

Even though music producers are not expected to be singers too, the more we understand about vocal production and recording, the better the final product! This includes knowing how to motivate, coach, and produce our artists. Singing is not mandatory during these sessions - we understand! Feel free to just listen.

It's not just about recording vocals; it's about crafting an experience that connects with listeners in a meaningful way. Discover qualities that distinguish us, here.

Testimonials

In our students' words.

“The small class size allowed the instructor time to give us individual attention/feedback. The teaching style was easily adjusted according to the levels in the class. As a very new producer, I never felt left behind. I never would have thought I could make this much progress in just 6 weeks!”
