All the freshers events are being posted on the Facebook page https://m.facebook.com/bucksfreshers2014 and the SU's twitter. There's an Oktoberfest event in freshers fortnight which I am so going to.

I agree we should all meet up for the first night event. Cheap alcohol, like minded musicians, loud music. What could possibly go wrong? Let the good times roll.

Sounds like a plan Owen, plus it will give me a chance to find out artists that are not hip hop artists haha

It's personal preference really James G, i have used Logic but I prefer ProTools. But it's what your comfortable with but if I were you I'd get familiar with both to be safe :smile:

and Owen sounds good to me, give us all a good chance to meet, hang and get to know everyone :smile:

I have a Presonus Audiobox 22vsl , Nice piece of equipment but alot of people have told me to buy a focusrite interface as well but I've not decided if I'm going to buy one. Decisions Decisions haha

Haha buying my focusrite was the best decision I ever made :') nerve racking!! But it's sooo good!! :3 I'd recommend one, but go for a 18in/18out get the most for your money :smile:

I will probably buy one soon, My audiobox 22vsl is a bit old now haha & Micro Korgs are the best haha. Akai do some pretty good equipment

Was probably an Akai MPD or an MPC. I've wanted an Akai MPC Renaissance for quite a while now but the lack of funds has stopped me from getting one. Need to fork out £700 for one of those bad boys & unfortunately its £700 that i don't have :frown:

I think it was an MPC thinking about it!! Aha I know what you mean, I need a new guitar amp as mine blew up but I haven't got the money to fork out either :') wishful thinking ey?

Haha very wishful thinking, Can't wait for this course to start, Looks like it's going to be a lot of fun with the people that are on the course.

Equipment, especially in this industry is very expensive, definitely wishful thinking :') and I totally agree! Super excited, everyone seems cool!! Add me on fb if you want... I hardly use it and I never update anything on it but it's easier than here :smile:

If anyone has any questions about the area let me know. I was born very close and live here, whilst I don't go to the uni I know a fair bit about the town etc.
