Today, our studios embrace each student with surround sound, MIDI (musical instrument digital interface) which enables the instruments to communicate with the computers, computerized music theory, arranging, composition, video and recording equipment with digital quality we only dreamed of 40 years ago. The “AV” building was built behind The Music School in 2022 to facilitate music video production, utilizing green screens, LED lighting, State of the Art Cameras, Mac Computers and software. As our Students perfect new music, they have the opportunity to record their piece using our cutting-edge computers, mics and other hardware. If they record twice, they are able to create a duet with themselves, or combine it with a piano or full-band accompaniment. Finally, we mix it down to MP3, and send it to their phone. During a typical Rock or Jazz lesson, the internet is often used. Tablature, Lyrics, MIDI and MP3 files are downloaded for instant access to key information to facilitate the lesson. That information may then be arranged and converted into wave format as a part of their MP3 production. Students also use MIDI to make a piano or guitar sound like a flute (or 150 other instruments). As technology advanced and changed the face of our planet, we embraced and rode that change by incorporating it into our instrumental teaching, performing, and theory instruction. And through it all we have not lost sight of the fact that technology is the slave to our teaching of traditional doctrine (not vice versa). We have come so far that we do not know of any studio anywhere that can even begin to compete with what we offer on a weekly basis to our students. We purchased our first music-theory computer in the 1980's and have stayed on the cutting edge of teaching techniques and technology ever since. “Anything less than a conscious commitment to the important is an unconscious commitment to the unimportant”. “If you do not know where you are going, every road will get you nowhere”.
