How old to work in a recording studio?

Answer 1

I believe the only age restrictions are that of any other job. I think in the US its around 16 or something like that to legally work. The chances of getting a job at a recording studio when you are that young is slim to none unless you know someone or have family in the industry. Recording studios have millions of dollars worth of gear and are hesitant to let someone that doesn't know what they are doing around. You could possibly get an internship and be a runner or something like that and work your way up.

I would suggest young people that are interested in recording to get some gear and start recording at home to get to know the basics and build some experience, and then contact studios for an internship.
