Sound Lab

The Sound Lab is a dedicated space for the creation of digital sound. It encourages experiential and applied learning and offers opportunities for students to engage with media in new, creative and accessible ways and to build oral and aural communication skills.

The lab features a sound isolation booth along with professional-grade equipment and software in an open, comfortable and inviting environment conducive to effective student, staff and faculty learning and creation, along with professional library faculty and student work crew support, training and instruction.

The lab facilitates the creation of quality audio files covering a range of disciplines and topics that can readily be shared with a wide audience on a variety of online platforms. Sound creations can take many shapes and forms, including:

Podcasts

Oral Histories

Voiceovers, scores and sound effects for video projects

Music recording/instrument rehearsing

Songwriting

Community-based projects involving service work with community partners
