Hands-on Technology
Students have the opportunity to create their own professionally mastered CD's from recording to cover design. The studio uses software from ProTools to Digital Performer to record in either MIDI or from our Baldwin and Steinway grand pianos by using professional cardioid condenser microphones with an analog to digital interface. This gives the students the feel for a real piano as well as a crystal clear recording. Students will have these CD's to use for college entrance applications and auditions, or to give as gifts or as keepsakes for themselves.
Teachers can also make CD's for demonstration purposes for students, so the student has a guide to use at home in addition to their lesson. Recording during lessons has proven to be a very useful tool in helping students improve their performance and sharpen their listening skills.
