Do you keep running into problems when you record/produce/mix/master your own music, podcast or other audio production? Maybe you are even unclear what those different steps are!
Don't worry, I can help you solve your problems, one by one.
I don't offer a standard course with a curriculum, but in stead I offer personalised sessions where we focus on what YOU wan't to learn, when YOU are ready to learn about it.

It doesn't matter at which level you work currently, I'm sure I can help you improve your productions and workflow.
Even if you just need help with setting up your equipment, I can help you.
Do you have everything set up, but things just don't work? I can come in and help troubleshoot your system.

So who am I?
I'm a professional sound engineer (both in the studio and live), record producer, composer and multi-instrumentalist.

Do you want to discover the world of recording studios or improve your skills in music production?
We can do this together in my studio or at your place.

I consider that we learn best by doing and I therefore try as much as possible to put you in control and to make you use your ears.
I adapt to your needs as well as to your level. If you have a specific project, we will use it to structure the course.

I have been a sound engineer for 10 years with experience in its various fields of application but also in teaching this knowledge. I teach both future sound engineers and curious musicians, or audiovisual enthusiasts wanting to demystify the audio part.

An example of the topics covered:
- Pre-production (how to properly prepare your projects),
- Recording (techniques, necessary equipment, in the studio or elsewhere),
- Editing,
- Mixing,
- Restoration,
- Choosing microphones,
- Mixing console,
- Studio equipment and connectors,
- Pro Tools and session management in general,
- How to behave during the recording session and deal with your customers,
- Advice for your home studio,
- Effects,
- ...

Trained at the Music Academy International, I propose private lessons of Guitar, Singing, and/or Audio Production centered on amplified music (funk, soul, jazz, rock, blues, etc.) and adapted to the requests of each student.

My classes are open to all, children and adults, beginners or advanced. I attach great importance to the understanding of the technical tools implemented in the interpretation of the pieces, a typical lesson is therefore divided between technical work with clear explanations and actual practice on songs to play or sing.

If the student is interested, I also teach the more theoretical aspects of music, such as harmony (scales, chords, modes, improvisation), music theory, rhythm, ear training, and deciphering.

I also offer coaching sessions. These are non-regular sessions to target work on specific aspects of the requested repertoire.
Each lesson is accompanied by work material (paper or audio) to practice at home.

For guitar lessons, an instrument can be made available, for singing lessons, I accompany the student on the piano or the guitar (it is also possible to use backing tracks when the key and tempo are right ) and for audio production, I can provide the software required to start on any operating system (Win, Mac, and Linux) (I don't work with pirated software).

Classes are given in my studio in Etterbeek, 5-minute walk from La Chasse.

I also teach group lessons for singing, do not hesitate to contact me for more information.
Flexible schedule (daytime or evening).

Hello, I'm Sam :)

As a music producer I've been working with Ableton live for both recording and making music as well as Live performances.

I'm comfortable using Ableton stock plugins but also 3th party plugins such as Fabfilter plugins (Q3, R, L2,...) and making percussive sounds with Serum (or Operator in Ableton).
I also do a lot of sounddesign using my prophet 6 or record guitar and make it stand out in the mix.

I'm very happy to hear what you like to learn so I can adjust the lessons to exactly what you need!
Please tell me what the issues are you're having or what you would like to learn and I'll make sessions at your personal level.

For myself, I mainly use Ableton to make electronic (deep house) music with rock influences.

I'm a certified sound engineer and I have prepared a course for beginners and early intermediates, who want to dive into the world of music production.

I got my bachelor's degree in Music Technology and Acoustics at the Hellenic Mediterranean University. I squeezed out the most useful and meaningful knowledge of a four year curriculum into a 3 month course to help young people save precious time.

Instead of roaming through reels and videos online, join my course and earn a solid foundation in recording techniques, editing, mixing, production techniques, MIDI theory, acoustics theory and the basics of mastering. By the end of the course, you'll be confident enough to produce your first single or EP.
