Audio and Music Production School in San Antonio, Texas

Not like any other school, this is Audio Education Updated, Reimagined, and Revitalized. Are You Ready to Take Your Place?

We took that old stale classroom concept, rebuilt and upgraded it by putting your classroom in a professional recording studio. Then we emptied out all the other students and left only YOU and YOUR TEACHER (yay for one-on-one learning!) who happens to be a pro music producer (with killer credits) to train you privately (at your pace, full time, part time, nights or weekends available).

Your Journey starts here. Amplify your Life and go to the next Level.

Are you our next Success Story?

How it works

Your San Antonio, Texas MUSIC RECORDING SCHOOL ALTERNATIVE

We hit different and here is why: 

There are a few different directions you can go about getting the experience you need to make a career in audio engineering and music production. You can spend a few hours a week, reading through online tutorials, watching YouTube videos, and trying to figure things out your own way; that’s one direction.

Or, you could also spend six figures on a four-year university. Take the prerequisites you don’t really need, potentially move thousands of miles away from your life, and end up with a diploma, a pat on the back, and not much else. Their schedule, their lesson plans, their class sizes. Their rules.

Then there’s the Recording Connection way. You set your schedule, you choose what programs you want to take, and you get to work one-on-one with a PRO MUSIC PRODUCER. There are no classrooms, just PROFESSIONAL SAN ANTONIO RECORDING STUDIOS. Whether you have recorded a few tracks of your own, once played in the high school band, or know the difference between a treble and a bass clef, or not.

There are SAN ANTONIO AUDIO ENGINEERING SCHOOLS to choose from, but how many put you in a real-world recording studio in the first week, giving you a fully immersive, hands-on experience over a six-to-nine month period? With us, the Recording Connection Academic Facilitator, your mentor, and you will collaborate on a schedule and customize your training program to suit your needs.

The music industry doesn’t have a standard work environment, so why should your audio engineering or music production education be based on protocols made up by academics, not working, practicing audio engineers and music producers? With us, there is still an eBook you’ll be required to read, there are still exams you’ll need to take, and there will still be plenty of homework but it’s all industry-oriented and written by practitioners, not pontificators.

This isn’t playtime, remember. Our San Antonio mentors are working in the real world, so you’ll be expected to do the same. This is the time to understand how to interact with clients and anticipate their needs, how to set up a studio for recording, and when to chime in, when to sit back and just let the magic happen.

So put away your phone – it’s time to Amplify Your Life.

We will submit your music to labels or get you a job in a studio or as a creator.

CLOSE TO HOME OR IN YOUR HOME

10 Miles, 10 Blocks, or 10 Seconds away from your future

The music industry has come a long way since having to get every instrument and vocal performer in the same room to record a song. The technology is such that individual tracks can be recorded at different times and brought together for final mastering. Recording Connection also takes advantage of that technology, allowing our mentors and students to remain in contact through rain, sleet, or snow.

Or worldwide pandemics. As 2020 showed us, it’s not always possible – or advisable – to spend time in the studio. But it’s not an issue for Recording Connection. For decades we’ve been offering remote learning to make sure we’re as accessible as possible for our students. Although we have locations in San Antonio, all over Texas, and throughout the U.S. and Canada, sometimes it just makes more sense to stay home.

Not only does this allow our students, and our mentors, to remain safe, it also means you don’t need to move to New York or L.A. to work with the music producers you admire most. The San Antonio music scene has much to offer, but if you want to work with someone based in Chicago or San Francisco, we can make it happen. You just need to have a powerful enough computer and reliable internet access.

If you've been looking for a way to drastically increase your skill and knowledge of audio engineering then RRFC should be at the top of your list. RRFC has transformed who i am as an engineer, and how i approach music as a whole.

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!

Octavio Preciado

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.

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.
