actually.. it would be cool to have a toronto producers meet-up.. that would be very cool..

To answer your question however, there is a school for audio mastering and things like that. Trebas institute of ____ (forgot exactly the name)

It's on College and University.

There's also a course at Seneca college called "Independant music production" , but you cover everything .. including useless things like songwriting

Dunno if anyone can recommend this, but I've been really REALLY considering this one:

GET A MASTERS IN PRODUCING!!!

A master's in producing eh?? It looks really cool however, are there any prerequisite programs or courses you would need to take for that?

Hey man.

Just got your message there. Been away from the net for a few days. It's exam time in college. One interesting thing I've found is on berkleemusic.com. They've loads of interesting music production courses. They're online courses so would be good to do if I can't find anything in Toronto.

I know this is the producers forum, but what's the club scene like in Toronto? I know Tiësto played there last year but in general what's the scene? Good underground clubs? Europe's great for clubbing but unfortunately Limerick is crap. We had Tiësto, Tall Paul and a few others a few years back but nothing really happens here now. Everyone's too into their pop and hip hop. Dublin has a few good DJ's but too few and far between. Let me know when you get chance. Cheers.

Yeah, that's true. Was at an Armin set last Friday and by God my arms were sore at the end of some of the breaks! You end up taking your arms down every so often rubbing them in pain and then straight back up again. Worth it though.

Man, that is the best description of a good trance set I ever heard...

well the hip hop thing is all over the world unfortunatly its a disease we cant stop hehehe i joke
but ya our trance scene is pretty good here, nothing compared to Holland (Amsterdam) but still good
id say every month we get a SICK dj, example, tiesto / blank and jones / armin / ferry

BY THE WAY, ARMIN is here MARCH 24 !!!!
if plans work out, this will be the first time i see him live

(Not trying to make a commercial here .. just my advice ..

I really suggest International Academy of Design and Technology (Toronto Film School)
Sound Technology program. Im attending it (Already in 4th term) and it's trully amazing. It's expensive tho, but equipment we got is great.. Best part of it is that it's accessible 24/7 (For studios, they have to be booked). Right now equipment wise we got 2 midi labs (One of 'em has new fresh G5's, Rolands Fantom 8's and digi002's and digi 8 channel controllers) Another one has Yamaha Motif's and G4's with Pro Tools, Logic.
Plus We got 2 studios in facility .. one of 'em has huge 24 chan SSL console (Amazing Analog board.. trully amazing) and in another studio we got i think either 24 chan Mackie .. damn dont remember model..
Plus HD room with 24 fader (automated) controller (Pro Tools, basically for Post production ... well i find it great for mixdowns.. )
Neat stuff is that Academy is located in CBC Broadcasting building .. in the heart of downtown ..and well in the heart of TV/Post production.
more info www.iadt.ca
About Trebas Institute .. i heard it's pure shit .. they got shitty equipment .. but it's cheaper for tuition..
Colleges, Universities .. it's a huge class sizes and harder to get in cuz a lot of ppl are applying..
So if u got $$ or wanna take OSAP .. IADT is the place to go

Where's he gonna be? I'm kind of out of teh club scene now caus eits all crappy top 40 trash..never found any real good clubs that play any good trance...also my friends don't like trance...It's funny cause I used to work at raves(setting up the sound and lighting)...I sort of miss those happy hardcore raves...lol...maybe not! First time I ever heard someone drop the mario brothers song though..lol. Anyway let mw know abou the Armin thing.

Don't forget about Harris Institute...heard that was good. Als My college, or former college offered courses...but don't know if they are any good. Take a look at Centennial College.
