Other Opportunities

As well as traditional audio engineering jobs, there are also many less well known audio careers you may not even realize exist. Cell phone ringtones can be either newly recorded music, or a reinterpretation of a classic, and they are considered a major source of income. Audio books are also serious business. Producing, marketing and distributing both of these requires skilled audio professionals.

Additional career opportunities exist in Education, Consulting, Acoustic Control, Duplication, Transfer/Archiving, Audio Restoration and Surveillance and Forensic Audio — definitely an eclectic mix.
