We have four compatible digital audio recording studios centred around Protools LE and HD recording systems. Our Audio Suite is equipped with 40 PC workstations for music technology and audio work. Each workstation includes a hardware synthesiser, software synthesisers, audio interface, MIDI sequencer and music technology software including Reason, Reaktor, Pro Tools, Cubase and Audition. There is a 5 kilowatt public address system for sound reinforcement studies.
The specialist video facilities consist of a mixture of solid state HD and DV digital cameras with a number of dedicated PC-based non-linear video editing workstations connected to a server based storage system. Material can be edited using programs such as Final Cut Pro and the Adobe Production Premium package (including Premiere Pro, Photoshop and After Effects). Finished material can be compiled onto DVD, Blu-ray or encoded into a multitude of codecs suitable for web applications such as youtube, or encoded for mobile devices. There are multimedia computer-programming suites to support the web site design studies.
There are also three Craft edit suites with industrial hardware and software; and television studios with HD cameras and green screen capabilities.
