On the first day of classes, held in one of the four recording studios, you’ll be actively learning and participating in studio-related audio engineering & production tasks. Recording classes at ymocs are small to ensure that our students get plenty of one on one time with their instructors and recording & production equipment as needed. That means from day one, you will learn by doing, not just watching.

In addition to hands-on experience with our studio equipment, as part of your studies at ymocs, we’ll bring in professional working artist for you to work with and record as final projects. You’ll get invaluable experience and knowledge in music production and the recording arts from our instructors, who have decades of credits from recording artists from all genres of music. They will be sharing their tips, tricks, and tools of the trade with you first hand.
