Project Suite.
A simple to use and flexible facility, with plenty of space to utilise the vast array of equipment we have in our sign-out equipment stock.
With a small Mackie analogue mixer, our Project Suite is ideal for students just starting with us, and for those sessions where a lot of hardware just isn’t necessary. We can work in the box, perhaps utilising the MIDI keyboard or Ableton Push 2. Or we can sign out synthesizers and drum machines from our stores and record them through the mixer. There’s plenty of space at the back of the room to bring in larger equipment too, such as an extra pair of monitors for multi-channel audio projects, a DJ set-up, a stage piano and more.
It’s also ideal for lessons taking place in Mac Suites 4 and 5. Just across the corridor, the Project Suite can act as a secondary room, facilitating any hands-on exercises that would benefit from taking place in a studio environment.
