My Project

Greetings,

My students have worked very hard to bring their dreams to life in our class.

We have started working with audio engineering and recording...something that was not possible at the beginning of the year.

My students have funded two microphones, cables, and interfaces needed to create music. However, our district has few laptops, and the ones we have are over 8 years old and will not run our software.

These laptops will be used specifically as Digital Audio Workstations. My students will be able to create and record their own music, but we cannot do it without performance laptops with the required specs. Please help!

Mr. Eschaton
Grades 6-8
