Oxford, U.K. (April 23, 2026)\u2014The University of Oxford\u2019s Faculty of Music has a new home, the Stephen A. Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities<\/a>.<\/p>\n The university unveiled its new Schwarzman Centre, home to seven faculties, institutes and research centers, at the start of the current academic year. The center houses the Faculty of Music\u2019s three music studios, including one equipped with a Harrison<\/a> 32Classic 32-channel console that can capture live performances from a variety of music venues and rehearsal spaces over the building\u2019s integrated Dante AoIP network.<\/p>\n \u201cStudio Three is a traditional recording studio,\u201d explains Daniel Hulme, the Schwarzman Centre\u2019s studio manager. \u201cAs well as more experimental and electronic compositional work, we teach students the traditional ways of making music in the recording studio, with small- to medium-sized ensembles performing in a room together.\u201d<\/p>\n The studio has an associated performance space, the Ensemble Room, plus four smaller practice spaces which all tie via the network into the Harrison, which features 64 bi-directional channels of Dante. \u201cThe Harrison gives us connectivity between all those spaces in that immediate area, so you can really capture a good-sized ensemble with separation.\u201d<\/p>\n \u200bAs Hulme was investigating console options, he felt that the Harrison console\u2019s operation would be easy for the students to grasp. \u201cThey\u2019re not technicians, they\u2019re not engineering students; they\u2019re musicians. It\u2019s not an engineering course; it\u2019s a creative practice course. So, the workflow of the Harrison was perfect, in that it\u2019s a relatively simple, open architecture. Some other products are more geared towards tech-heavy engineering, and have multiple layers; there\u2019s lots of stuff that could be overwhelming for a music student. There are no hidden layers to the Harrison. It\u2019s all there to see.\u201d<\/p>\n As he narrowed his search down to two console options, he continued, \u201cThe thing that I liked about the Harrison was primarily the sound of the console, the sound of the EQ and the mic pre. It did not disappoint. I ran some stems through it and listened to the EQ. It was a beautiful thing. The 32Classic has the right balance of function, form, and sound. That really appealed to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.mixonline.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The University of Oxford\u2019s Faculty of Music has a new home, the Stephen A.
