Courses are restricted to a maximum
of 5 people. This ensures that each student gets the maximum amount of

The cost of
the two day course is €200 and includes course material and
refreshments.
The four day course costs €350. The four day course covers the same
subjects in more detail and includes how to make and sync a video to
audio.
Here is what a few
people have been saying about the recording course:
"The Orion recording school is an excellent
introduction to all aspects of recording. The course
comprehensively course covers everything from
microphone placement and recording techniques, through
to the mastering process. You will learn how to
operate Pro Tools during the recording, mixing and
mastering stage and also how best to employ plug-ins,
compression, reverb etc. during each phase of the
process. Kevin’s knowledge of sound and ability to
explain the science of sound also proves invaluable
for working in any studio environment."
Declan Carey, Scribble. www.scribbletheband.com
"If a sound dunce like me can end up feeling that I have a little more to
offer the session than my well honed coffee-making skills, then that makes Kevin Sheahan a genius"
Mick Hanly.
