BA(Hons) Creative Music Technology

Guided by a team of industry professionals, expert academics and technical tutors, you’ll learn about music composition, production, recording, editing, mixing and mastering. You’ll also hone skills in creating sound and music for a wide range of media, including film and games, explore sound design and immersive audio technologies, and develop your areas of artistic practice through individual and group music-making and specialist tuition.

You will:

• Work in high-spec studio facilities with a range of digital and analogue hardware, software instruments and plug-ins, as well as surround-sound monitoring

• Access a wide range of industry-standard equipment, including microphones, portable recorders, amps, synths, drum machines and controllers

• Collaborate with musicians, filmmakers, game designers, dancers, animators and designers on other Falmouth courses

• Work in a vibrant community of research-active lecturers with industry connections. Recent visitors include Ed O’Brien (Radiohead), James Young (Darkstar) and electroacoustic composer Professor Jonty Harrison.

• Grow in experience and skills through optional modules, industry placements, overseas study and starting your own company
