At Lori Moran Music, we offer all the same lessons online that we offer in person - Voice Lessons, Piano Lessons, Music Theory, Musicianship and Sight-Reading.
The Covid-19 pandemic made it necessary and now it's become a convenience that many of us continue to rely on. While it's always preferable to do in-person lessons, we understand that it's just not always possible to go to a teacher's studio. Luckily, technology has improved considerably when it comes to online music lessons, and many of the issues in this type of instruction have been mitigated.
Online Lessons
There are a few adjustments that must be made to one's settings if using Zoom, however. We encourage students to refer to our guide on Optimizing Zoom Settings for Lessons and make those adjustments before your first lesson.
Zoom software is designed for meetings and clear speech, but using the default audio settings for music performance creates problems. The sound cuts out whenever a note is held and high and low frequencies are often not heard. Making just a few changes in these settings will help your music lessons come across much more clearly on Zoom. The list of steps below will guide you through the process of setting up a Zoom account and configuring it for the best sound you can expect.
