My Students

My students attend a Title I public school. Even though they do not have a lot of money or come from the best neighborhoods, they are amazing at troubleshooting and making the best out of everything they set out to accomplish.

The students are hungry for more in the way of hands-on learning in a professional recording studio environment.

I want to offer them the best education possible as they will become trendsetters in an ever-changing world of A/V Production.

My Project

My students work very hard in our classroom/studio to learn skills while recording our student rock band. I am trying to add new equipment that will help them instead of using poor gear that will leave them frustrated when trying to work through recording sessions and live stage shows.

These wonderful microphones will enable them to capture audio for studio recording purposes.

These are great microphones to use for wind instruments, guitars, percussion and vocals. There are a lot of ways to use these microphone, and they definitely will allow the students to build skills.
