  1. In the UK the 21st June was to be freedom day. The day targeted for all venues to open up to full capacity. The UK Government has decided to delay this for a further month to get as many people over the age of 18, vaccinated. We know once restrictions are lifted that the demand for Live Music will be huge once more and potentially bigger than before the pandemic. The US is opening up for shows ahead of the rest of the world. Ticket demand is high, quickly sold-out shows for June, July and beyond are the norm. We have all been starved of live music for a very long time! BRPT interfaces with many industry groups, not only here in the UK , but worldwide. The live events production industry has two main concerns. Firstly, that during the pandemic, a number of workers have left the industry out of financial necessity or retirement. With no work, young people have not had the training to replace them. The industry faces a skills gap. There has never been a better time to train to get into the industry. The second concern is that existing live events production workers are anxious about their return to work after such a long gap. It has been an incredibly tough time, for all, especially financially, for those in the industry and for those wanting to start in the industry We have taken the decision to play our part in helping our struggling industry to get back to work successfully, to discount all of our recently released online courses by 50% until 31st August 2021. If you wish to get into the industry, this big discount applies to our full LSF or LSI courses and to our wide range of individual subject-specific lectures for existing sound engineer or audio techs wishing to brush up their skills and knowledge in certain areas. BRPT has always been dedicated to the improvement of skills and knowledge in live audio and to the wellbeing of the industry and those who work in it and now more than ever in these tough times. To take advantage of our offer, visit our website and use our discount code BRPTSUMMER50 on your chosen course. www.britanniarowtraining.com

  4. We have all felt the impact of the pandemic and how it has made 2020 an unforgettable year for the wrong reasons. For us it was the end of our Training Programmes, we shut our doors in March, not able to continue to operate. A massive impact for us and importantly, students wanting to progress in the industry. We are absolutely delighted that with thanks to a Creative Industry Grant awarded to us, we have been able to convert our training into online training, which will allow our many existing and potential new students to learn online, safely, at their own pace, from tutors at the top of the industry, from the comfort of home. Our new training programme will commence in mid-January 2021. We will offer beginner and advanced training. Complete courses can be booked – our very popular 'Live Sound Fundamentals' and 'Live Sound Intermediate' courses. We will also offer customised training bundles – Digital, RF and individual sessions will also be on offer. Our new website is now live and will develop further over the coming weeks to reflect the choice of courses on offer and allow students to sign up.

  6. Sound Network and Britannia Row Productions are pleased to announce an evening of Live Microphone Technique with DPA Microphones. We will look at several options available for achieving dynamic drum and guitar sounds suitable for all genres from rock through to jazz. We will also demonstrate the new 2028 vocal microphone in action and compare the on and off axis response to its cousin the d:facto 4018VL. These will be demonstrated through live performance as well as critical listening through multi-track playback. Participants will then have the opportunity to set up a mix and experiment with EQ and dynamics processing, Video and multi-track audio content will be available demonstrating various band performances and mic placement. Individual microphone channels will be available for critical listening and comparison, providing a deeper understanding of the effects of room acoustics, spill, EQ, and dynamic processing on multiple sound sources. Presented by Les Mommsen from Sound Network. To book visit - https://www.eventbri...eNviqmJDHToq2pE

  8. This month's LSA is – Psychoacoustics, the study of how humans perceive sound Barnaby Thwaites and Britannia Row Productions presents Psychoacoustics, the study of how humans perceive sound. This session starts with a detailed description of the human ear with particular reference to its properties that underscore our appreciation of music. A number of key concepts are discussed, and demonstrated live using the presenter's original audio constructions including critical bandwidth, masking, beats, phantom tones, missing fundamental, pitch perception and autocorrelation, consonance/dissonance and directivity of sound. Participants will experience intriguing auditory phenomena, helping to underscore understanding of some of the nuances of audio engineering. Barnaby Thwaites has had a life-long and varied musical life from the age of 6 onwards. Most of his working career was spent in the NHS as a cardiologist, from which he escaped to pursue recording and mixing in his own studio, playing bass and singing in local bands, and developing a thoroughly healthy infatuation with analogue gear. Psychoacoustic interest was triggered when considering why cardiology trainees found evaluation of heart sounds with a stethoscope so difficult. This has led to the conclusion that the ear is far more sophisticated than the heart, although deep down this conclusion is made somewhat reluctantly!
