Simon

I am a firm believer in `passing on skills & knowledge` and my own experience and qualifications has put me in a privileged position where I am able to deliver my belief to students of all ages, ranges, needs and wants... I own and manage a recording studio and remain a successful recording artist whom releases electronic music internationally on many record labels.

One of my main passions is audio post production and I run a company called Black & Gold Audio in Cornwall where I write music and record sound for television and film, some of my most notable music has appeared on shows like American Idol, Oprah Winfrey, Sky Sports, Miami Ink, America’s Next Top Model, MTV Europe, Trinny & Susannah Undress, Storm Watches, Ribena drinks and more.

I teach with industry standard DAW`s such as Logic Pro X, Ableton Live and Pro Tools. I also use and teach 3rd party softwares such as Native Instruments, Waves Audio, Izotope and more.

On courses I also explore the use of recording with hardware such as microphones, mixing desks, audio converters, effects processors, synthesisers and more.

If you would like to see my current DBS check please get in touch and I can forward upon request.
