NYU is a very good major in music recording, especially in Tisch School of Arts. This college is the art college of NYU, and its majors mainly include music, film, media and other art majors. The name of the major is Recorded of Music, but this major is an undergraduate major. There are also related majors in Steinhardt College in NYU, which offer master's degrees. Steinhardt is not a conservatory of music. But the major is not entirely recording, but music technology.

The University of Southern California also has related majors, which belong to the Conservatory of Music.
