I seriously looked forward to it every week. What makes it so different from all the other courses I’ve purchased over the years is the live, in-person element. It makes it so much more enjoyable, and I know for a fact I would never have made it through all this material if it were a self-paced, video course.” ~Adam C., Class 18D Alumni “If you are serious about producing podcasts and would like to learn from a true leader in the field, Chris Curran’s Podcast Engineering School is a huge value. This is a lifetime of experience that will benchmark your knowledge among the best in podcast sound engineering. I am now highly aware of the process, production, and importance of professional sound for podcast listeners – and I know how to make it happen!” ~Jim C., Class 17A Alumni “As a beginner in the world of audio, I really benefited from Chris’s Podcast Engineering School. Chris is a very good professor because he was very interactive with every single classmate and very patient with all the help he would give. After graduating I feel WAY more confident producing audio than I ever would have without this program. Overall, I highly recommend PES to anyone interested in learning the straight to the point no fluff version of professional audio engineering for podcast production.” ~Erika K., Class 17A Alumni “The Podcast Engineering School is an absolutely stellar course. It’s amazingly thorough while remaining focused on providing you exactly what you need to become a professional podcast producer.” ~Bryan E., Class 17A Alumni “Podcast Engineering School is a worthwhile and valuable investment for anyone who wants to produce a high quality podcast. Chris is very attentive and accessible for participants, and each class session went far beyond my expectations in terms of what I hoped to learn. Best of all, it’s all very practical, and I’m able to apply it immediately so I can “SOUND GREAT!” ~Barry G., Class 18B Alumni “I learned tons about recording, mixing tracks, adding effects to create higher quality podcasts, and so much more. I’m already applying these skills big time. Chris is a great teacher who really knows what he’s talking about when it comes to sound engineering. Overall, I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve their podcast production skills by leaps and bounds.” ~Ben L., 15 yrs old, Class 17A Alumni “If you’re thinking of signing up for Podcast Engineering School, do yourself a favor and sign up now.
