In July 03 Tumbleweed Studios pioneered an Introductory course in Sound Engineering and Music Technology. The course was designed to meet the demand from local artists and students, who were eager to learn more about Sound and Production Techniques.

The course is ideal for anyone who is thinking of Sound Engineering as a career or people who are currently working or performing in the industry and want to learn more. The course covers 2 topics per class and is outlined to touch upon all areas of the recording process. One of the classes is held in the Spirit Store venue and is dedicated to Live Production techniques.

The course fee is €300.00 and can be paid in instalments over the course duration.

A €50.00 deposit secures a place on the course.

There are two course classes a week and class place are limited to six people.
