Great audio seminars for techs and musicians
beingzoe about 4 years ago

Many years ago in an effort to improve and enhance my knowledge as an audio engineer I attended a seminar by Syn-Aud-Con (Synergetic Audio Concepts). The company and their seminars were recommended to me by an audio engineer I respect so I tried it out. My experience was phenomenal. The seminars offered by Syn-Aud-Con range from beginner/introductory to advanced. The seminars helped reaffirm and remind of the basics, dispelled certain myths, and expanded on concepts that improved my abilities as an audio engineer immensely, and I highly recommend their services.

I just received a newsletter from them and I thought I would share some upcoming seminar dates and give some links to their site.
