South Texas College Makerspace

The Sound Studio will be a custom-made room for sound recording, mixing, and audio production of instrumental or vocal musical performances, spoken words, and other sounds. The recording and monitoring spaces are specially designed by an acoustician or audio engineer to achieve optimum acoustic properties. It will primarily be equipment microphones, mixers, synthesizers, and small instruments such as a digital piano. User would be given the option to bring in their own instruments.

To use the Makerspace equipment, participants must first have either: attended one of our Makerspace Workshops
