Testimonials

 

We were both new to Cubase and home recording. I explained our needs to Alex, who fixed us up with a 3 1/2 hour home visit from Jules Pyke. He was such a warm and approachable guy that my nerves at playing in front of someone else evaporated very quickly. My requirements are possibly different from most Cubase users, as I wish to record classical guitar. This didn't faze Jules and he helped me to attain a sound I was happy with, as well as setting up templates and shortcuts for future recording. Nothing was too much trouble for him and the 3 1/2 hour time slot was perfect. Left to our own devices, I don't think we would ever have managed to find the information required and set up the system as well as Jules did. He even wrote out instructions for us to follow.   I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again and found it to be worth every penny"

‘I have used audio support on two occasions both of which have been very successful. After having my Logic system upgraded, I asked the shop who did the upgrade to show me round the new system. With very little success from the shop, who didn’t seem keen to show me how to use it, I gave audio support a ring. Paul came round and set up my studio and showed me round the new software. He has a fantastic approach and answered all of my fundamental questions making sure I knew how to use the equipment to its potential. The second occasion was some further training in Logic from Julian and Jules, both of whom were excellent. It was a day that proved to be very useful with me gaining some step by step procedures in order to improve my music making. Paul, Julian and Jules Pyke are very good teachers who are not only very secure in their skills and knowledge but are very good at putting it across to someone with little experience. Their service is very good value for money and I would highly recommend them and will no doubt use them again when I next need training.'

A really good experience. I learnt loads of new things and Jules was very happy to work on the things that I wanted to know rather than a layed out lesson plan. I had both practical and technical training and found every thing we did to be very useful.
