Ways you can develop these skills are:
- Practice!!!! Book access time and practice.
- Use your ears - listen to what sounds right and work out why.
- Make use of your classes - we are here to teach you so if you want to know more then just ask.
- There are loads and loads of really useful books about microphones, mixing etc that are available to you. Just ask. Soon they will be in the rehearsal room corridor for people to access. Also ask Grant as he's an expert in these things.
- Ask your classmates - you all know different things at different levels - learn from each other.
- Go to The Roundhouse
- Make friends with 2nd year production - they have studio access and may be willing to let you sit in on a session so you can see how they work.
