Nobody Loves Me
 
Location: Irish In Madrid
I want to work in music.

I need a career change,
Ive worked in pooters & electronics & right now Im teaching english. I really dont like my job & have decided to change. My one love is music, I DJ, scratch, have used cubase etc etc but other than that I dont know which way up a piano goes (go figure). Id love to do a course & begin on the ground level of a studio or something, pays not a problem I can survive on minimum. Thing is I havent a clue where or how to start. Does any of youz have experience with this? Id really love some advice.
Thanks for your time.

well, a good place to start might be community college. see if any around you have any music tech. programs. i took a year off from university to go to one and get stuff out of the way, and found classes on music production and stuff like that. might be a good way to get your learn on and some experiance, and maybe even some leads on jobs.

If your looking into something like recording engineering its not that difficult to get into. The first thing you can do is get a book or two about microphones (how they work how to set em up). Then youll want to get a book on the hardware used in studios I.E. signal processors, fx processors, mixing boards, recording consoles. Beyond that you might want to get a real understanding of cubase and midi. Once you got all those down everything hangs on the ability of your ears. If you do full mixes on your tables you should be pretty knowledgeable about eq and level matching and when people hear you work theyll be able to tell. I dont think classes do much unless you get a degree but even then I have seen a bunch of my friends go the schooling route and it hasn t gotten em anywhere because when it all breaks down the studio/producing business is about your ears talent and your profiency with hardware.

i was considering this also.

from my understanding, an arts and technology college was the most logical means of getting your "foot in the door".
get the proof of your knowledge (a diploma) and look for connections.
