But where does a student go to learn the art of recording engineering? Many colleges across the country will try and convince you to learn in a classroom, packed with other students with only a scant chance of getting your hands on professional recording equipment. At Number 9’s Recording School, we take a different approach.

Well, here we are, August 11th… and the month is almost up. Not on the calendar, but in our schedule. There are some serious projects occupying us through the end of the month, with fewer and fewer time slots available as the days go by. If you were planning on getting something done in August, get a hold of us as soon as you can so you can make sure the time is there for you. Take advantage of the C. Bechstein concert grand that we have – most do! Take advantage of our one-stop facility where you can record, mix, and master your album, then do the design work for your album cover or press kit, and do one copy or many thousands with us – all in one expertly-staffed place.

It’s never been easier to get your music out in the world. Doing it at Number 9 just makes it sound and look better.

Still trying to decide on a recording school? Take a look at our modular courses. Nothing is more flexible – and we like to think nothing gives you a better education, either. Give us a call or stop on by to discuss. It might be September before you can start if you don’t hurry, though…

Of course, corporate clients for voice-overs or voice replacement are welcome too. We’ve got a couple of those going on through the month as well. Book your time soon to make sure you can get those September promos out in time, with the best possible quality.

Book your August times in… while you can…

We have been running a recording school in one form or another for many years, offering a variety of lessons with professional instructors. Our unique “hands-on” and “one-on-one” approach has won us accolades from peers, students even other recording studios! Over the past two decades we’ve built a strong reputation as one of the most respected studios in North America to learn the art of recording engineering.

Even with all this success, we are constantly on the lookout for ways to improve the learning experience. Over the past few months we took a long, hard look at our courses, and made the decision to re-tool the structure of the course to better serve our students.

After much deliberation and re-organization, we are very excited to release the basic syllabus for our Modular Recording Courses! Click Here to view the syllabus in PDF format.

Our modular curriculum breaks a wealth of recording knowledge into smaller topics. Students can focus in on their areas of interest, whether it is Pro Tools Recording and Editing, Analog EQ’s, Compressors and Gates, or any other one of our many modules. Students are invited to take as few or as many modules as they like, learning what they want at a pace that is comfortable for them.

If you would like more information about the modules or would like to book a studio tour, please give us a call or send us an email using the information below.

Number 9 Recording Studios would like to congratulate the US on the new president elect and the hope he brings to the world.

The new President Barack Obama, with his strong message of change, hope and unity, will herald a new era in US politics, bring a more multilateral approach to the worlds challenges, and perhaps transform the issue of race in America.

Certainly we feel we speak for all of Toronto and Canada when we say he is welcome here anytime.
