Music program acquires new equipment

With this investment of 134 million, students will be able to use the equipment, according to professor Juan Manuel Urrego, in the core courses of MIDI technology, audio theory, and the physiology of sound. It can also be used in conducting, orchestration, music production, mixing, and track management, among other areas.

But the benefits of this important acquisition don't end there. "Students, depending on their chosen degree program, will also benefit from its use. They will also be key to the Serenata por Cundinamarca cultural event," he states.

But when will they start operating? “We are accelerating the purchase of licenses for the Sibelius, Reason, and Logic Pro programs this semester so that they can begin providing service in the first months of 2022. It is important to highlight that ten workstations must be set up in certain spaces.

This purchase completes the digital laboratory. “We had previously acquired a Yamaha digital console highly specialized in audio capture. We had also received some controllers, which are like small pianos, that will be installed at each of the ten workstations. Likewise, the microphones we had obtained for making high-quality recordings will be integrated into this entire project.”.

According to Juan Manuel Urrego, this important update fulfills the requirements of the accreditation program, its redefinition, and the quality conditions of the Zipaquirá campus.

In this way, UCundinamarca works to improve pedagogical processes through the acquisition of new technologies that train professionals who are in tune with the advances demanded by the labor market.
