Leipzig University Educates With Lawo
P

art of the education and training
enjoyed by students at the Leipzig
University for Technology, Economy
and Culture, Faculty of Media -
Hochschule für Technik, Wirtschaft und
Kultur Leipzig (HTWK) - includes the
opportunity to work with a Lawo mc²36
Audio Production Console.
The aim of the HTWK is to enable
students to apply their theoretical
knowledge to real-world productions,
as part of its Media Technology
bachelor
degree
program.
An
important part of the training is access
to the tools that enable their use in
practice.
"The decision to use a Lawo mc²36
production console in our Video Studio
was preceded by some long-term
market research and evaluation," said
Christian Birkner, Laboratory Engineer
at HTWK Leipzig, and Manager of the

in-house Campus Studios. "Along with
market acceptance, performance,
flexibility and reliability were the key
factors we considered while searching
for a new mixing console. The large
number of mc²36 installations, our
findings during studio visits, and
discussions with users showed that
it met all requirements and fitted our

concept and budget frame."
The 24-fader Lawo mc²36 console
has an integrated Waves SoundGrid
server, enabling the 'All-in-One'
console access to comprehensive
real-time signal processing options
in addition to those provided by the
console's internal DSP engine.
