Tips & Tricks for Creating a Home Recording Studio


"Udemy instructor, Huw Collingbourne, has cracked the code on professional lighting, sound, and video- for next to nothing. Huw has sold nearly $90,000 worth of courses of Udemy and taught over 4,000 students since starting on the platform in 2011." --- hmmm, that's me they are talking about. I guess I must be doing something right then!

Udemy has just posted an article about my little home studio - see here: https://www.udemy.com/blog/tips-tricks-for-creating-a-home-recording-studio/ I've also recorded a short video tour of my studio (actually a tiny, cramped space in my house) in which I explain how you can create videos that look professional even when you haven't got professional-quality equipment.

Learn Cross-Platform Programming with Pascal (and save $60!)


If you want to create great CROSS-PLATFORM applications that run on Windows, OS X and Linux, I strongly recommend that you try out Free Pascal and Lazarus. This is an amazing combination of a fast, powerful compiler and a slick visual programming system – you just drag, drop, click and code.


I was the Object Pascal (and Delphi) columnist for PC Plus magazine in the UK for over ten years and I am passionately keen on this wonderful language. My latest programming course explains everything to need to know to program in Lazarus/Free Pascal or in the commercial Delphi system, to give you a way into creating fast, compiled cross-platform programs.

In over 5 hours of video lessons, you will learn how to design, code and debug cross-platform applications using the powerful Object Pascal language. The course comes with a code archive of ready-to-run programs for OS X and Windows. Plus, there is a 124-page course eBook.

“Learn To Program With Pascal” contains over 40 lectures in ten chapters. It starts with the very basics of Pascal syntax and goes right up to quite advanced topics such as Pascal Object Orientation, class hierarchies, user-defined types, File IO, how to save objects to disk, exception-handling and serialization.

All the software you need to follow this course is available for free. Alternatively, you can use the commercial Delphi development suite. The code archive is available for Delphi too. If you want to break into the world of professional Delphi programming, this course will get you up to speed in record time.
