University of East Anglia Electroacoustic Studios

There are four electroacoustic music studios designed for undergraduate and postgraduate composition and research. These are based around Apple Macintosh computers, Digidesign and MOTU hard disk editing systems, with outboard mixing and sound processing equipment, and a large variety of software for synthesis and sound transformation and control. Three of the studios can be linked to the Concert Room to function as a high quality digital recording facility. The studios are equipped with DAT, CD and MD recorders, Lexicon reverberation, Akai samplers, ATC active monitoring and other outboard equipment. A multi-loudspeaker sound diffusion system is used with a custom-designed 20 channel sound diffusion console for concerts of electroacoustic music. Portable sound recording kits are available to studio-based students enabling location or environmental recording.
