Purpose and description of the content of education:
The "Studio Techniques (Ohmnibus)" module aims to introduce students to the fundamental techniques of working in a professional recording studio. The course covers theoretical and practical recording, mixing, and sound editing. Students can work with modern equipment and software used in the music industry. During the workshops, various sound recording techniques will be discussed, including microphone placement, acoustic space arrangement, and the selection of appropriate tools for sound production. The course places a strong emphasis on developing teamwork skills and communication in the context of music production. Participants will gain practical sound engineering experience and master their projects in a professional studio environment. The module also fosters creativity and experimentation with different music production techniques.
