OSCILLATIONS: An Introduction to Field Recording & Sound Production - 2 day short course

This is a 2 day short-course for anyone, from any discipline, who is interested in acquiring fundamental theory and skills for working with sound, especially when recording outside of a controlled studio environment. Whilst there are many overlaps with studio recording, field recording often requires an inventive approach and can pose several unique challenges.

Whatever your background and discipline, this course will allow you to:

• carve out dedicated time for learning new skills
• experiment with simple but quality recording equipment
• discover how you can expand your creativity by working with recorded sound

Created and hosted by Jon Tipler, this course has been developed for those new to working with sound and attempts to demystify the technologies and workflows associated with digital audio production, giving you the confidence to dive straight in!

What previous participants have said:

"I now have a complete understanding of workflow, a more confident use and understanding of recorders and how to capture field recordings, then process them through the DAW and render at the end - this was something I hadn't done all by myself before. It has helped me think about the possibilities of sound in my research." - Clare

“Being taken through each stage of the basics in the field recording process was exactly what I hoped for. There was a lot of new information but it covered everything necessary for someone new to the theory and was delivered really well.” - Bernadette
