I predict this class will be one of the most helpful for employment opportunities. Awesome! Also great teacher!"

Studio Design & Maintenance – Instructor: Boris Drazic

Anonymous said, "Awesome course. If there's any class I wouldn't want to miss, it would be this one; Boris is a total genius."

Richard Vandop said, "Boris is generous. He has been helpful inside and outside of class. He even came into a studio session and helped us figure out problems we were having and let us use his preamp. If I ever become an orphan, I will ask him to adopt me. He is an excellent teacher."

Anonymous said, "Boris is a very intelligent and a great teacher. It's a pleasure learning from him!!!!"

Rory Valecourt said, "Boris is an inspiring person. He finds ways to explain things in real-world terms. I don’t feel like a moron when he breaks things down and teaches you step by step. His stories of experiences in the field are inspirational and I think are just as important as the course itself. His knowledge of not only the Course, but the music industry in general is extremely powerful and helpful to all areas I think I will go in this industry. Simply put, Boris is the best teacher I’ve ever had in my life. His teachings will stick with me for the rest of my life because of his ability to relate all audio, with real world problems. I honestly believe if I had someone like him in my high school, I would have been a straight A student. Thank you Boris + PAVI, for giving me the opportunity to learn from a real Pro."
