If you fancy delving into the world of music technology and having a go at making a beat or track, fancy giving DJ or live performance a shot, or want to gain experience in our fully featured facilities then our Music Technology Evening course could be for you.
Commencing Wednesday 2 October 2013, the 10 week course costs only £110.
All music technology students at Carshalton College now work on brand new Apple iMac computers with both Cubase and Logic Pro installed as standard. Both studio PCs have state of the art Apple Mac PRO computers with Intel Xeon processors. We also have a large range of professional microphones for recording vocals and instruments courtesy of SE Electronics.
The music technology team also have several avenues open to the DJ performance side of things with Pioneer CDJs turntables, Ableton Live with Akai APC40 controller and Native Instruments Traktor PRO with S4 controller. Our studio 2 has been redesigned and treated with acoustic tiling to get things sounding really tight. And of course we still have Studio 1 with our fantastic live room and 24track recording facility.
Not only do you get to learn on the most up to date equipment and software but you also have the expertise of one of our music technology tutors Nat Ryles. Nat is a music tech guru, starting his life as a dance music producer and DJ way back in the late 1980s. He has plenty of industry experience as a record label manager, promoter, live and recording engineer and has travelled the world performing at some of the largest underground dance music festivals on the planet. The key to Nat's value here at the College is that he is still very much active within the industry writing, recording and performing.
The Carshalton College Music Technology Evening Course is a friendly and laid back workshop where the students are free from the bother of assessments and written work. Everyone is encouraged to communicate their needs and desires with the tutor so that their time can be used as productively as possible during the sessions. The equipment is there to learn on and gain experience of, and the tutor is there for help and guidance. All levels of skill are welcome, from absolute beginners looking to have a go, to the semi-professional looking to brush up on advanced techniques.
