“Creative Audio at Ulster University introduced me to many new techniques and technologies used in audio production. The course helped me discover new interests in creating and programming (including Max for Live and TouchDesigner), and all of the lecturers have always been there to point me in the right direction.”

“The overall experience was very enjoyable. The wide spread of topics covered over the course was great and very interesting. The approach of covering topics encouraged us to find areas of interest and conduct our own research. It helped develop independence as students by the end of our studies, supporting the transition away from a secondary school mindset, which I personally felt I fully left behind in my third year.”

“I was extremely satisfied with Creative Audio, and I feel that it has given me the exact knowledge and experience I hoped to gain. I always found the lecturers to be approachable and very helpful, and the studio facilities will be greatly missed. I found all the modules to be current and relevant to the industry, especially through the use of software such as Wwise and Max.”

“I'm enjoying my time on the [Creative Audio] programme. My favourite element of the programme... the Designing Sound module... learning how to break down a sound, and how to effectively recreate that sound.”

“The quality of information and the streamlined nature in which it is delivered speaks volumes about the staff. This course finds a way to explain every topic, regardless of depth or difficulty, in an easy to follow format. In terms of subject matter, the team spends time versing you on why the information presented is important for your venture into the world of music technology. Every topic is carefully selected and is essential for a career in music technology.”

“The [Creative Audio] programme has been brilliant from start to finish. Each module brought something new and even when I thought I was relatively experienced in the topic at hand I always learnt numerous new techniques and developed a deeper understanding of the topic. Each module was delivered in a clear and concise manner that catered to all experience levels... One thing that consistently amazes me about the Creative Audio programme is the sheer breadth of the content delivered while still going in depth on each topic.”

“[It's] really great to work with such talented and creative people and...a really invaluable experience to me”

“The modules I enjoyed the most were the coding ones however all the teaching staff were great. The coursework oriented style of the course really suits it and it teaches you some great skills. It taught me how to be more independent when it came to researching and problem solving but there was help available if you really needed it... There's more than one way to fix things and I think the [Creative Audio] course teaches this flexibility when it comes to problem solving really well. I think if there was one big impact the course had on me it was to be an independent thinker and it made me a better problem solver.”
