Madison Media Institute Recording Students Work Daily With Historic Recording Console

Madison Media Institute - College of Media Arts (MMI) in Madison, Wisconsin, is proud to announce the recent addition of a Trident 80c 40 input recording console. "We try to expose our students to a wide range of industry-standard equipment," says Doug Olson, chair of the recording department at MMI. "We want the students to have the opportunity to work on a variety of top-of-the-line recording and mixing equipment." The school's rich history of involvement with media sets it apart from other schools. MMI is recognized as a training leader by its peers in education and businesses involved in new media production.

The console was purchased from Rumbo Recorders/Metronome Studio B in Canoga Park, CA (formerly owned and operated by Captain and Tennille). The recording pedigree of the console reads like a who's who of artists and musicians. The list of those who recorded on this console includes but is not limited to: Kiss, the Smashing Pumpkins, Guns N' Roses, Fleetwood Mac, Motley Crue, John Cougar Mellencamp, Tom Petty, Stone Temple Pilots, No Doubt, The Rembrandts, Ice Cube, Keb Mo, P!nk, Spinal Tap, Megadeth, and Ringo Starr. There were also a number of movie soundtracks that were recorded and mixed on the console including: "Speed," "Robin Hood," "Interview with the Vampire," "Godzilla" and "Thirty Something."

Madison Media Institute has been preparing students for jobs in electronic media since 1969. They know how the latest trends in multimedia -- DVD, the Internet, e-mail, HDTV and digital broadcasting -- are reshaping the entertainment and communications industries. Madison Media Institute is recognized as a leading resource for training and expert guidance in media arts. All of the degree programs offered use the latest tools and techniques to provide students with the training they need. MMI graduates become videographers, web designers, 3D animators, music producers, sound engineers or one of the many other professions in the entertainment and media fields.
