Sound Technology

To sustain your career in the audio industry, being a multi-skilled practitioner is a necessity. So, whether you see your future in recorded sound, live sound or postproduction, we help you develop skills in all these areas. We also equip you to be adaptable and teach you in such a way that you understand why you are doing things, as well as what to do. It is only by having this strong theoretical base, allied to practice, that you can ensure that you can adapt to technical change as it happens. Finally, although driven by technology, the industry is about working with people – without them, the technical tools have no value. We provide the environment, the people and the tools to learn all these things. You also have 24/7 access to our studios during term-time.
