Hi, I'm form Argentina, and this is for those that are interested to learn this art, i know that you have great great schools for training in this of Recording Engineer, I've recommend here in Buenos Aires Argentina, the TECSON Studios, of course isn't the AES or some of these kinds of institutes, so thinking about the price and the dolar value here in argentina, in two years or less u can learn some things, I study there , and the people who works is cool, and if u want to chek it here is ur web page:
tecson.com.ar
If u speak some spanish and want a short career and go back with knowledge to sign in in some of ur institutes, i think it's good, all this as an option...

PS: Sorry, my english, i have to work it a little...
