Issue #30 – Student Successes
by L. Swift and Jeff McQ
Since finishing his course, Recording Connection graduate Dan Walsh has had nothing but good things to say about his apprenticeship experience. “I had a great experience at KDS Music Studios in Orlando,” he says. “David Mikeal (my mentor) gave me so much vital information about engineering and the overall music business.”
As an apprentice, Dan quickly became part of the day-to-day operation of the studio, meeting and working with some high-profile artists along the way—including Philip Michael Thomas from Miami Vice! “David was able to guide me through the entire recording and mixing process with real clients,” says Dan. “He showed me a lot of old-school methods of recording and mixing that helped simplify the process, which allowed me to be more concerned with the important parts of the mixing process.”
As a finishing touch on his apprenticeship, for his final project, Dan had the opportunity of assisting David through the entire process of recording and engineering the debut album for a local rock band. “I had so much fun in my sessions with the band,” he says. “I could not have been given these opportunities in a classroom, and I feel like I learned so much more from the hands-on training that this program provides.”
