Center for Audio Production Instruction

July 4th, 2009

Essential Sessions Studios in conjunction with the Center for Audio Production Instruction have organized an alternative to existing audio education programs.  CAPI is a one of a kind opportunity to gain the confidence and experience necessary to work in a professional recording environment.

CAPI is based on experiential rather than theoretical education models.  Each course is offered as a single experience that may be taken in conjunction with other classes for a complete audio production education. An example of this opportunity is The Studio Experience which is a compilation of  a focused set of courses offered at a discounted rate.

The prerequisites for CAPI are a demonstrated competency in Pro Tools® or successful completion of our introduction to audio production.

All classes except the Introduction to Audio Production are one-on-one personal learning opportunities.
