Courses tailored to your exact requirements. Your personal circumstances may dictate the need for personalised learning either on a

one to one basis or a small group of up to three students. Times and course content can be adapted to meet your specific needs

and learning times planned with your own exisitng commitments in mind. Where students plan to study together course times may

need to be adapted accordingly and students should realise that this may cause delays to the start times of modules.

This form of learning does not suit everyone and we would want to discuss with you in detail before offering to provide tuition

in this manner. Hwever, when appropriate, this can be a very effective way of moving forward fast.

It is important to say that our courses are not accredited by any national awards body so will not suit everyone.

About Us

Copysound Training is an independent family run learning initiative established in 2011. We moved to the area in 2006 after twenty years working in the music, recording and duplication industry, based in Buckingham close to Milton Keynes.

We set up West Street Recording Studios in 1993 which ran for thirteen years. Also teaching Sound Recording Techniques to students at Peterborough Regional College for two years and private courses that ran from the studio for a further four years.

Day to day work involved demos and albums for hip hop artists, indie, folk and jazz bands, as well as projects for older well established rock and blues artists. Voice over artists of all nationalities were regular visitors recording voice for public sector, corporate and training products. We worked closely with local BBC radio for a while recording artists like Ronnie Scott as well as classical broadcasts including the Herts Youth Orchestra. A list of artists we have recorded is available on our mobile recording page

We provided location sound and composed original music for BBC 2 Learning Zone television series Teaching and Learning with IT. Original themes and underscores for a host of other independent corporate and educational video productions.

Our TV and Video music library offered many hundreds of tunes written and recorded by other composers. We addressed a range of copyright issues that faced us on a day to day basis.

Since moving to Somerset we have concentrated on our duplication business which operates from our home in Upton.

Copysound Training brings all these experiences together to provide a down to earth practical programme of creative sound engineering courses for our students.
