Recording Studio

At So i Heard, your student can record their songs at a professional level in an environment focused on education.

While your student can record their music in their weekly lesson, recording music is a project on its own that shouldn’t take away from their regular lesson experience.

The So i Heard Recording Studio is equipped with everything your student needs to have an awesome session:

Vocal Recording Setup / Professional Vocal Microphones
Logic Pro / Pro Tools
Large Recording Room
Creative and Fun Environment

At a certain point in every student’s progression, getting in the studio is a great reward for all the hard work they’ve put in. Your student can record anything from an original song to a fully produced version of a song they’ve been working on in their lesson.

Hi, I'm Diego!
My love for music began at a young age when my father would share his love for funk music with my brother and I. He loved the music of groups like Parliament and Jamiroquai and it rubbed off on me at a young age. In my teens I would teach myself how to play different instruments through instructional books/DVDs from the public library and playing in bands with friends; but I had been studying for a career in architectural design. After high-school, I felt that my heart was completely in music, so I abandoned architecture and got a job to pay my way through Berklee Music for Music Production. Since graduation, I have been recording local acts from Rock, Pop, to Hip Hop and investing all the revenue back into the studio. This has taught me many valuable lessons about the entire music production process; from having the first idea of a song to officially releasing it to the world and every step in-between.
My Approach To A Typical Lesson
While teaching music lessons, my main goal is to cultivate a love for music that carries through the years. Like English conveys ideas, music is a language of emotions, and I hope to instill the desire to speak that language to all my students. By flexing our creative muscles through constant creation, the theory and the technicalities become a goal for the student to facilitate the expression of music they feel inside.
My Advice For Students
To learn any language we must immerse ourselves in the world of that language. My advice is to immerse into the world of music by listening, studying, practicing, and playing as often as we can. We become what we do, so if we play music everyday, we are music.

Hi, I'm Jake!
I'm a passionate rock musician with a specialty in guitar as well as music production. I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in Music Production and Industry from Ramapo College in 2019. My prior experience includes touring the country with my band Callout as well as recording 2 full studio albums. While my speciality is guitar, I have a passion for music theory and the piano as well. My philosophy for teaching is making learning music both fun as well as informative through various interactive methods. I believe that a strong foundation in music theory, combined with the excitement and passion for learning an instrument is what leads to a knowledgeable and well rounded musician. In my lessons I highly encourage learning the basics of music theory while reinforcing these concepts through learning songs as well has a various assortment of technical and musical exercises.
My Approach To A Typical Lesson
Each of my lessons are broken down into three parts, technical warm ups and exercises, music theory, and learning songs that you want to learn. I begin each lesson with a technical skill to help improve your technique and overall understanding of the instrument. We'll then move into a small section of music theory for each lesson. I strongly encourage learning the basics of music theory as it opens a world of possibilities for your instrument. Lastly, we'll work on songs that you WANT to learn so that you can feel comfortable in your own musical improvement and be able to show others what you've learned.
My Advice For Students
You can learn absolutely anything on any instrument as long as you PRACTICE and STICK WITH IT. The first few months of learning something new can be frustrating, but is incredibly rewarding in the long run. It's important to practice consistently each day, even if it's not for a lengthy amount of time. Learning how to be a good guitarist comes from training both your ear and your hands. Practicing consistently will help build muscle memory and eventually, playing your instrument will become second nature.
My Favorite Local Places
I love the local venues around New Jersey, especially Starland Ballroom, Boontunes, and Allstar Music Empire.

Hi, I'm Gabe!
I was always interested in learning to play an instrument. When I was seven years old I began taking classical piano lessons. I stuck with classical lessons until high school, when I began to branch out into other styles including: pop, jazz, contemporary, and cinematic. I became especially interested in cinematic music and decided to pursue this in college. I graduated with a degree in Film Scoring from Berklee College of Music in 2017. Since then, I have worked on multiple student and independent films. I also have worked as a freelance composer in New York City writing music for television commercials.
My Approach To A Typical Lesson
Music can and should be an enjoyable hobby to have and develop for the rest of your life. I give my students control over their lessons. I am only interested in teaching the types of music and techniques my students are interested in. This is key to having fun and finding the motivation to keep practicing.
My Advice For Students
Don't be shy about expressing your likes and dislikes to me during the lesson. Remember, this is YOUR lesson. We can steer each one in the direction you are excited and curious to go. I am most interested in helping you achieve your musical goals.
My Favorite Local Places
The Raptor Trust bird rescue in Millington by the Gillette location. The Paper Mill Playhouse. The closest Dunkin' to Millburn or Gillette. Best way to start the day!
My Music
Most recently I have been focused on writing music for commercials. I think it is very interesting as it challenges you to write in just about every musical style there is while trying to keep it to only 15 or 30 seconds long.
