  • Create the desired mix for the specific lab you are engineering.
  • Responsible for the distribution of recorded assets (stems, files, etc) to the lab's Google Drive folder immediately following the session.
  • Maintaining and cleaning up the PWL rooms after each band, including properly wrapping cables, putting away microphones, and covering the piano and other equipment.

What You Bring (Qualifications):
  • Must have completed MP-385, Advanced Recording Techniques
  • Must complete the Studio Operations training session.
  • Understanding of the proper techniques for recording various instruments (saxophones, brass, percussion, piano, electric and acoustic bass/guitar, etc).
  • Robust knowledge of DAW workflow
  • Previous recording/sound experience with acoustic ensembles
  • Experience using Google Drive and other Google tools.
  • Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
  • Reliable and consistent.

What You'll Gain:
  • Hands-on experience recording music with top-notch musicians
  • Opportunities to work directly with Berklee faculty and industry professionals
  • Development of your technical and creative skills as a session engineer
  • Network with faculty and peers, opening doors to future collaborations and career opportunities.

By taking on this role, you'll gain experience that complements your academic studies at Berklee. This opportunity is designed to help you develop the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in a career as a professional session musician.
