Sight and Sound presents Digital Audio Fundamentals Workshop Presented Allen and Heath
6pm @
Sight and Sound Music Center
4341 W Williamsburg Blvd
Ready to take your sound to the next level? Join industry expert and Allen and Heath Rep. Steve Gridsby for an immersive workshop on the fundamentals of mixing on today's latest Digital Audio consoles by Allen & Heath! This course is designed for beginners and aspiring engineers alike. Whether you're still stuck on an old school analog console, or intimidated by the software feel of today modern consoles, this clinic is for you. Whether you are working with live music, podcasts, corporate, or houses of worship, this session will give you the essential tools to create clean, balanced, and professional mixes starting from square one.
We’ll break down key concepts including proper gain staging, EQ (equalization), compression, gating, and the effective use of effects like reverb and delay. We will touch on signal flow, console configuration and basic console setup and touting. You’ll learn not just what these tools do, but how and when to use them in real-world scenarios. This is not a lecture, it's hands on! You will be sitting at an Allen and Heath digital console and working through guided demonstrations and practical examples, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how each element shapes your sound—and how they all work together in a cohesive mix.
What You’ll Learn:
• How to set levels correctly with gain staging
• Sculpting tone and clarity using EQ
• Controlling dynamics with compression
• Cleaning up audio with gates
• Enhancing depth and space with FX
• Tips and workflows used by professionals
No prior experience required—just bring your curiosity and love for sound!
There are limited seats in front of a console for the hands on training, please call 7657440751 to RSVP to reserve your seat. If all console seats are full, we will still welcome everyone to listen to the training as well! If the class fills up early we may add 3pm sessions as well. This is subject to change.
