If you have had more than a passing interest in synthesizers, recording, MIDI or Logic, then this is the subject for you.
The subject covers the history and modern applications of technology in music, such as recording techniques, synthesis and sound waves.
The classes are small, hands on and interesting. The first assignment involves writing an essay on a piece of music describing the use of music technology in it, the second one involves a range of options for you to demonstrate what you have learned throughout the semester. They range from using the logic sampler/synthesizer to make unique sounds to putting music to a bit of film.
The handouts given at each seminar are very detailed yet easy to understand, which makes revision for the exam a whole lot easier.
And for synth fans, there will be a pleasant surprise greeting you at the first seminar
