Record, produce, and mix a quality vocal — mic technique, editing mastery, tuning & mixing vocals and a virtual studio visit with a vocalist at work. Sessions in-person in London and Live Online.
London is where Garnish began, and the Vocal Production Course here is taught by producers working in the city's studios, clubs and labels. Groups are small, classes are hands-on, and the same course runs live online for students elsewhere in the UK and Europe.
Even though music producers are not expected to be singers too, the more we understand about vocal production and recording, the better the final product! This includes knowing how to motivate, coach, and produce our artists. Singing is not mandatory during these sessions - we understand! Feel free to just listen.
It's not just about recording vocals; it's about crafting an experience that connects with listeners in a meaningful way.
“A really good way of filling in the gaps of your knowledge. If you dabble in production but want to learn how to use it properly - in-depth and taught well, so you to learn quickly and easily with loads of practical exercises and homework.”
Tim Medcraft
