Our overall goal is an advanced command of the methods and techniques in the field of digital media production, as well as a critical reflection of theories of media-cultural change. In addition to regular courses, we also offer study groups and tutorials focusing on these main topics. Moreover, we provide 1-2 day workshops cooperating with guest artists/musicians, and also welcome visitors from other universities, cultural organizations, and commercial music production. Both the ‘AudioLab’, as a high-end production facility, and the computer center’s ‘workroom digital audio’ provide the technological resources for these activities. Among our activities are the following:
- general working techniques and methods of media production
- the basic configuration of MIDI and audio workplaces
- MIDI and audio standards
- periphery control and programming (synthesizer, sampler)
- video synchronization
- inter- and intranet, including HTML integration of MIDI and audio files
- material editing and design
- digitalization and editing of audio material
- sample cutting and looping
- sequencing
- effects (reverb, echo, chorus, etc.)
- signal processing, mastering (enhancing, compression, etc.)
