Professional experience.
Our close partnership with the Weidner means that you’ll have experience in professional venues, including the acoustic crown jewel of northeast Wisconsin, Cofrin Family Hall, the main performance facility at the Weidner.
Your Resources
Audio Production students record and stream the Weidner events over a digital multimedia network where microphones, mic preamps, and cameras in various performance spaces are managed through a central computer workstation.
In addition, students will have an opportunity to work with cutting edge equipment:
- Mac Pro workstation with Focusrite RedNet Dante interface for 128 tracks I/O
- Studio DAWs include Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Ableton Live Suite, and Reaper
- Genelec, JBL, and M-Audio studio monitors
- Full control room interconnection to one live room and two large rehearsal rooms—whether it's solo piano, a three-piece rock band, or a full symphonic string section, there’s no project too big for our spaces.
