Survey About Audio Engineering/Music Production

 Dear colleagues,

Apologies for cross-posting. We are looking for people who have worked as a
record producer, engineer, or studio assistant on other people's music in
the last 10 years to participate in an international survey (translated
into over a dozen languages). Details below. Please feel free to forward to
your networks. Thanks for your consideration.

Best,
Athena


Dear audio colleague,

We are inviting you to participate in an online survey that aims to capture
important demographic information about the audio industry and recording
producers/engineers’ experiences of discrimination in the studio. Our goal
is to document experiences of discrimination within audio engineering and
music production. The results from the study will be used for academic,
educational and industry purposes. The survey would take about 20-30
minutes to complete (divided into two parts):

Your responses to this survey will remain anonymous. Individual responses
will not be able to be traced back to individual respondents. The anonymous
data will be accessible only by our research team, select AES members, and
the survey administrators of the University of Lethbridge (Canada) who will
all have signed a confidentiality agreement. There are minimal anticipated
psychological and or emotional risks from taking part in this survey. You
can stop answering questions at any time. You may withdraw your
participation at any time by closing your browser. You are also free to
answer or not answer any questions (other than the demographic data
questions). Your data will be stored only once you submit your responses.

If you have questions about the study, you may contact
[email protected] or +1 (403) 332-5261. You may also contact the
Office of Research Ethics at the University of Lethbridge at
[email protected] or +1 (403) 329-2747 if you have questions about
your rights as a participant. This research has been reviewed for ethical
acceptability and approved by the University of Lethbridge Human Subject
Research Committee.
