Recording Engineer For a Day

If you’ve always wondered what goes into the making of a record, here’s your chance to find out. You’re invited to spend a day with your host, David Allen Hammond, observing and assisting as he records musicians at Spyderman Studios, located in Chama, New Mexico. 

 
Your day begins with preparing the studio for the day’s session. David will show you the studio layout and explain the process of audio engineering. You’ll learn about the basics of microphone selection and placement, instrument micing, audio paths, and effects. From the comfort of the control room, you’ll get to observe while the engineer and musicians transform their creative vision into a quality music recording. 
 
Then it’s off to lunch with David, where you’ll get to sample the local cuisine from a selection of restaurants in town. After lunch, you’ll head back to the studio for more recording and mixing, as David and the band work to polish the raw recordings, mix, and add effects and additional tracks to the songs. What a great way to learn about music making from the inside!
