Song Production Masterclass
Be part of an exclusive recording session
Want to learn what it’s like to produce a song from start to finish inside a professional recording studio? Experience this for yourself in two of London’s most respected and famous studios, Abbey Road Studios in St John’s Wood and Angel Studios in Islington. Our ‘Song Production Masterclass’ is a 4-day experience that will take you through the entire recording process.
Led by the legendary engineer, producer and mixer Andrew Scheps you’ll immerse yourself in each of the stages of recording, mixing and mastering in our world-class facilities.
Andrew Scheps brings with him a wealth of experience and expertise having worked with some of the biggest bands and artists in the world including, Low Roar, Green Day, Metallica, U2, Johnny Cash and Linkin Park. He has been awarded three Grammys for his work with Adele, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Ziggy Marley and been nominated over 20 times in categories including ‘Best Rock Song’, ‘Best Rock Album’ and ‘Best Hard Rock Performance’. Also, Andrew was named ‘International Engineer of the Year’ by the Music Producers Guild.
Across the four days, you’ll spend time between the two studios. Days one and two will be spent at Angel Studios in ‘Angel One’, where you’ll observe all the different stages of recording a song, from microphone selection, live room set-up, tracking and recording management.
Day three will be spent mixing down the track with Andrew Scheps in Abbey Road’s Studio Three, home to iconic recordings by Amy Winehouse, Pink Floyd, Brockhampton and Anderson Paak. On Day Four you will be back at Angel Studios in the Dolby ATMOS suite learn how award-winning Abbey Road Mastering Engineer Oli Morgan puts the final touches to the track, getting it ready for release.
We’ll end the masterclass with a review and reflection on the four days to wrap up the session. You’ll leave with insights and an understanding of behind the scenes at Abbey Road and Angel Studios, which have previously been unseen by the public.
2025 DATES TBA.
