Overview
This Music Technology A Level course explores the technical �behind the scenes� work of the pop music world. On this course you will learn how to record pop music including live multi-tracking, and how to produce your own sequenced arrangement of a well-known song. You will also study pop and jazz styles since 1910. Music technology is taught on classroom computers using Logic Pro. We also have two recording studios here at the Performing Arts Centre in Lewes. You will receive mentoring from professionals currently working in the industry.
How will it be delivered?
