Dante Verdi – Jersey City, New Jersey

My experience with the Recording Connection Music Production and Audio Engineering program at Engine Room Audio Studios has been amazing! There were so many opportunities to learn, and share what I've learned throughout the whole program. My Academic Facilitator, Alex, and my mentors at the studio offered their guidance and expertise whenever I needed it. It was awesome to become familiar with the studio, and learn about the environment in which my favorite records were made. It was incredible to...

Jordana Sidlow – Valley Stream, New York

The experience is definitely one of a kind. Being in the professional atmosphere and having access to the actual console and gear gives you the real deal experience that can take you far. All the mentors you have access to are great people and actually teach you things to improve yourself in your career choice. They won't let you fall and will always encourage you to learn more. Great program

Keyvon Rippey – Linden, NJ

Sam, academic facilitator, is an stupendous mentor. You'd think my tracks wouldn't be so night and day but each time by the end of our sessions. Additionally I enjoyed my time at ERA ( studio I got paired to ) Lots of workshops for songwriting, observations, and mastering. Only con I see is the program is way to short, and the online bookwork you could frankly find for free online. What your paying for is the mentors and going into...

Kimberly Lynn Ahlers – Queens, New York

This is an excellent alternative if you decide not to go the college route in Audio Engineering and Production. My Academic Facilitator ( Alex Solis) and Mentor (Nacor ) were super helpful during my whole experience in the program. Learning from engineers at the studio , some of whom graduated from the program was very inspiring. Overall I recommend this program to anyone interested in learning about Music Production/Engineering while also getting hands-on experience in the Studio.
