The
Design/Midi lab, located in the Class of 1944 Hall, recently doubled
in size to include 21 computer stations equipped with software
for sound processing, musical notation and sequencing, graphics,
and lighting/set design.
The computer stations are split between the Mac and
Windows platforms, and include current Dell computers running WindowsXP
and G4s running OS X. Korg X5D Synthesizers are available for each
station, and two master stations can project demonstrations, scanned
images and videos to classes using the room.
Classes in the lab include courses in Digital Music,
Piano Class, Marching Band Techniques, and Costume Design, while other
classes in music theory and set design assign work to be completed
in the lab.
