Pics and Tunes from Audio Recording Techniques

For the last round of Audio Recording Techniques we recruited the talent of TRAC Alum Sarah Dorrian, who sang and played guitar as students and interns from Studio West learned about micing, routing, patching and more. Listen to her track here. Next, they were joined by our "house band" (Peter Dyson on drums, Henrique Landim on bass, Hunter Levy on guitar and vox) who covered The Undertones' "Teenage Kicks". Listen.

News from NAMM

Peter and Mark visited NAMM yesterday expecting smaller crowds...only to find the place was still packed! Mark took a beta version of Avid's new User Certification Exam and got through the 100 questions in 30 minutes (the bar has been set!). Avid's plan is to redesign the certification process so both the video and audio sides of the house follow the same rules...we'll be posting news here and on the site about the new criteria and new levels of certification, so stay tuned!
