See the post above your last one. I dont think your understanding why the origional post was made, hes doing the graded unit in aberdeen college, which involves doing a write up about setting up a studio, how you would go about doing it etc, As for the comments about SAE, are you even aware its an educational facility? if you look at the people that have come out of SAE and some of the work they have gone on to do, how can you say its not worth the fee's? These people are making a living off of somthing they love doing, and for those that havnt gone on to work in the industry, i doubt they would spend the money on the course to then realise they actually dont enjoy sound production as much as they though. most will be active in the music buisness in some way,
