I'm Bob. I have acquired years of professional music and recording experience, a rare technical background that I love to inspire students with.
Promoting Music and the Recording Arts for over 35 years, I have fortified students with a creative knowledge that would otherwise take years of trial and error to learn. I am proficient in most popular production software tools such as ProTools, Logic Pro, Samplitude and Final Cut Pro, utilizing these apps often in a professional studio environment. My progressive education in music production and electronics allows me to communicate complex and creative ideas simultaneously. From a unique guitar voicing to a sophisticated studio setup, this knowledge will be yours to access for years to come.
My college major resides in Electronic Communication Technology with a minor in Music, enhanced by years of musical performance and close studio collaboration with gold and platinum artists. I have received two technical certificates from Sony and Panasonic, produced numerous successful music albums plus several nationally released radio and television commercials. I currently own and operate a commercial recording studio, design and build unique electronic assemblies and tutor students with an inspiration for Music, Guitar, Audio Engineering, Video Production and Electronic Design.

Joel, 4 lessons with Bob

First lesson with Bob

I'm a Music Mentor, and while my Music and Guitar chops are great, I know zip about recording. Bob is ALSO a true Music Mentor, and it seems like he knows a bunch! He teaches a lot like I do; not data and information, but knowledge woven into a presentation style that feels the way teaching is supposed to feel. We've already scheduled for next week, and I'm excited. Thanks, Bob!
