About
Music Production
Combine strong music theory and practical training, invite industry leading instructors into the classroom, then add state-of-the-art labs and audio studios to the mix. That, roughly, is the recipe top music production programs are using to vault aspiring hip hop beatmakers, record producers and recording engineers into North America’s nearly 8-billion-dollar music industry.
Music production programs across Canada include everything from principles of sound and acoustics to multi-track recording and studio techniques, audio for film and television, studio maintenance and repairs, and business classes specializing in administration and marketing in the music, film and television industries. Many top music production programs will cap your training with a mixing and mastering final project alongside a co-op or internship opportunity.
Common career paths for music production graduates include boom operators, audio directors, mastering engineers, concert technicians, music editors, recording engineers and record producers. However, new digital technologies in the music industry affecting how music is made, distributed and consumed, are blurring the lines between producers and artists in exciting new ways.
The average salary of a music producer in Canada is $79,952, according to the Economic Research Institute. Of course, producers who sell their music directly to top recording and performing artists or popular independent musicians can earn substantially more.
