How it works
Your Rockford MUSIC RECORDING SCHOOL ALTERNATIVE
Rockford, Illinois is located west of Chicago in far northern Illinois, straddling both sides of the Rock River for which the city is named. Although not nationally known as a music business hub, Rockford supports an active music scene with bands covering a variety of genres. Each year along the downtown Waterfront, the city hosts the On the Waterfront Music Festival featuring major acts as well as local bands. Additionally, a local organization called the Rockford Area Music Industry (RAMI) holds events and provides scholarships to promising area musicians. Notable bands and musicians with ties to Rockford include rock band Cheap Trick, Destiny’s Child member Michelle Williams, and Tony Award nominee Marin Mazzie.
Rockford is home to several live music venues and recording studios to accommodate the needs of the music community. If you are considering a career in audio as a recording engineer, live audio engineer or music producer, you’ll find a surprising amount of opportunity in Rockford.
We will submit your music to labels or get you a job in a studio or as a creator.

Recording Connection does a GREAT job at placing you into REAL studios with REAL engineers and opens the door to allow you to create those connections with your mentor, and continual learning. You truly get out of the program what you put in. Another great aspect of the program are the virtual advisors that can help you with question regarding Pro Tools and other material as well. Much props to Alex Solis for helping me through the program!

After being a musician for a couple of years, I've decided to take my music skills to the next level. I was very fortunate to have landed in Recording Connection, they helped me out since day one with my registration, and any paperwork needed. I was placed at ES Audio Studios in Glendale, CA. My mentor at the studio, Donny B. is very knowledgeable. He helped me through the process since the beginning. He helped me pick a great laptop suitable for Engineers. I had no clue of the existence of any DAW's, and after a few months of spending time at the studio, asking questions, getting a hands on experience, and doing colabs with other students/engineers I now have the privilege to be a professional. A huge thank you, to all who helped answer my questions and helped me grow as a professional engineer.
Jorge Fuentes Quiroz – Los Angeles, California
I had a very good experience with Recording Connection and my mentor Donny Baker from ES Audio Recording Studios. He taught me the things that I need to know about being an engineer/producer and to always be prepared for the gig and to keep the gig as well. I learned a lot from my mentor, other students that are more experienced, my Academic Facilitator Jon, and other engineers that worked there. I thank everybody that has helped me through this journey and will use the advice that has been given to me to improve as an engineer.
