Music Technology has a range of specialised equipment that is only bookable for specific Modules/Faculties. This is due to the specific requirements of a course and the equipment having been purchased specifically for this purpose. As such it's vital that this equipment remains available for allocated students. Below is a list of equipment and a bit of information about each:
