Issue #180 – Apprentices in Action
by L. Swift and Jeff McQ
We caught up with Recording Connection student Jacob Waid and Root Van Dorn during an Ableton lesson at Incident Music Labs in (Greenville, SC). As is often the case, a question led to an informative learning experience—delving deep into the differences in time/tempo manipulation between Reason, Logic, Pro Tools and Ableton. Might as well learn all the DAWs!
Just weeks into the program, Recording Connection student Stephen Tyler Bostrom (Milwaukee, WI) who apprentices with Todd Fitzgerald at Winterland Studios, has taking the foundational work seriously. It’s a pursuit that’ll pay dividends in the future: “The last two lessons have been very information heavy. But hey, with everything you learn in life you gotta get through the basics, before you get to learn the fun stuff. Sometime last week I went in to shadow a mixing session, my mentor was doing for a band…Met a lot of the engineers that work at Winterland Studios. They’re all some pretty cool dudes. Met some beat makers, some other clients recording, and making beats there. I love this apprenticeship, it’s tons of fun, and I’m learning lots. Can’t wait to see what’s in store for tomorrow, and what comes in the future!”
