Hey Chris,

I don't have that much in the way of knowledge. The radio production class I 
took only covered the very basics. Not to mention the equipment they used was 
half accessible, and I didn't have time to learn it with all the other stuff I 
was doing at school at the time. They had me using CoolEdit and WindowEyes. If 
I'd known about Sonar and CakeTalking, I would have pushed them to get that. As 
it was, they wouldn't even get me GoldWave. They already had a JAWS license 
throughout the whole university. Anyway...

Yes, I'm looking for experience to sharpen my skill set, or give me one. I did 
some very basic editing while at school, and I mean VERY basic. And not a lot 
of big multi-track stuff either. It was a tough situation all around. I think 
if I'd had a heads-up on what they were planning on doing as far as 
accessibility, I might have accomplished more while there.

As far as taking a course goes, I've thought of it, and if I would go the route 
of the university, I'd more than likely have to take a bunch of prerequisite 
courses, etc.

I'd be happy to check out any books you might have on the subjects.

Chels

Hi Chelsea. Are you trying to get your name out there to learn the 
craft? Or to apply skills you already have?

If you want a list of books on mixing/mastering, let me know.

You'll still need CT and Sonar, preferably on a dedicated computer, 
decent speakers or headphones.  Taking a course or two can't hurt 
either, although books are a cheaper option if money is an issue.
