I don't know.  I heard studio engineers work 10 to 12 hour days but if you love it.. go for it.

work in a place where you can make yourself happy. Do not compromise anything on your career.

Well yes, if you feel you can afford to, or you would get dragged down a lot by a job you weren't passionate about. If you love your career, then your more likely to give more of yourself to it, and work harder at it. So doing what you love, and taking that far, can get you a lucrative career. So you have your cake and eat it too!!!

Acoustical engineering is the branch of engineering dealing with sound and vibration. It is closely related to acoustics, the science of sound and vibration. Acoustical engineers are typically concerned with:\n\nhow to reduce unwanted sounds \nhow to make useful sounds \nusing sound as an indication of some other physical property \nThe art of reducing unwanted sounds is called noise control. Noise control engineers work with engineers in most industries to ensure that their products and processes are quiet.\n\nThe art of producing useful sounds includes the use of ultrasound for medical diagnosis, sonar and of course sound reproduction.\n\nA separate and related discipline, audio engineering, is the art of recording and reproducing speech and music for human consumption.\n\nRetrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustical_engineering"

You have a number of options. Due to the fact that production is all about end results, the first thing that matters is experience. A degree in music (not necessarily from a university) will be a good place to start from in order for you to advance to a better status as a producer afterwards. The best producers around are musicians themselves. Then you can study music production on a university level for the techincal details and advice you will definatelly need in the precess. I'm all for the university in this case. But I still insist that in the end, it's about experience and a good ear.

I think what makes engineers good engineers is creativity and ingenuity. You don't have to be and expert in the empirical sense of engineering. What they have taught us in the University are the empirical aspects of our profession. I am not saying that what they have taught us is wrong. It's just that profession, much like in life, is all about common sense.\n\nMy advise to you is, go out there and enjoy. Forget about the science of engineering (you already have it in you) ...try to discover the art of it! \n\nYou would appreciate it more on the field, where good engineers are honored. Be practical and use a lot of sense. Be practical and straight forward in presenting solutions. Watch, observe, ask and listen! It's a continuous process of learning. Learn as much as you can and love the profession...\n\nGood Luck!

Oh there are soo many awesome careers available.  A major choice you will eventually have to make is if you want to be a professional performer or not.  Performance is great, but endless practice, stress, and competition.  I think it would be neat to get into composing, especially for film, and a piano major focusing on composition would be ideal for that.  Check out this link from Berklee.

I guess I have done that.  I have always liked to talk...I have always liked to make people laugh... I turned that into a pretty nice little career in radio.  True, I do have a B.A. Degree in Communication Studies/Radio, TV, And Film, but there are a number of people in broadcasting that have never set foot into a university classroom.  There are a lot of places that say they "prefer" applicants to at least have some college. On the other hand, some places will accept "Real World" experience in that particular field as enough to qualify you for employment.  Just remember, Very few people working today can actually say they love the job they currently have, or even expected to be working in the industry that they currently are.  Sometimes it comes down to what you need to do to survive.  But if you have a dream to do something, with your life, you have to at least give it a shot.  If you make it.... fantastic!  But if you dont make it, at least you tried, and will not have to live with "What if I tried" looming over you for the rest of your life.

I agree with what everyone eles said it depends on how good you are and how famous you may become.  Seeing as your well experienced with the instuments, all you have to do now is get someone to hear you play. someone that can help you out

depends if you want top of the line studio, or top of the line sound.\ntop of the line sound isn't that expensive.  You can go to any local studio that has protools and a sound proof and get good sound.\ntop of the line studios usually give you more experienced engineers and thats what sound boils down to is engineers...

Hi there. Engineering quite a good career to go into. When you study engineering, you will find out that actually engineering student are mostly chosen by the work force. Sometime even chosen to be a sales personnel and so on. Engineering is not a bad field to go into. \n\nBut than my recommendation is to go for something you like. Don't just because you think that that field had no future or crappy and so on and choose not to join. \n\nAnyway i am engineering student. I think it is fun but tedious sometime.

It is a professional course, so I would say that it is a good profession. The only thing is that it depends on who you are and what your personality is towards the course. Overall, it's a good job to have.

If you mean a good career, first think about what you really love to do and what you're good at. You'd be surprised the different careers out there. If it's something you enjoy in your spare time, it's very likely you can earn money doing it. There are also online surveys that can help you choose a good career. Try doing a search for career aptitude, and you might find a few.
