Central to our new facility at Orsman Road is the additional cutting-edge music technology, which enables our students to get to grips with the leading equipment that the industry has to offer. SSL recently announced pointblank as an official partner, and we’re proud to say that we are the only school in the UK with a 48-channel SSL Duality Delta SuperAnalogue™ console installed within their studios.

If you want to start learning on the best equipment in the business, you need to enrol on our Complete Master Diploma. It’s our most comprehensive course, and is delivered in our brand new second studio complex in London. If you haven’t been to see it yet, you can book yourself on a tour here.

The Duality is housed in Studio 1, with the adjoining live room ensuring that the space can be used both as a studio and a classroom in one. This is the primary space where our Diploma students gain first-hand experience of using the desk within our advanced sound engineering and mixing modules. The Live Room also includes come classic kit like Gretsch drums, VOX and Orange amps, an Ampeg bass amp and a range of guitars.

The SSL desk, together with an Audient ASP8024 – 48 channels fitted with ASP8024-DLC (Dual Layer Control for Moving Fader Automation and DAW control) – within Studio 2, enables our Diploma students to use industry-leading equipment alongside Pro Tools, Ableton and Logic.
