	''Much like the recently designed and installed "Composition Studio" the Mix Studio would be a mix focussed space with an excellent monitoring setup and some choice pieces of outboard gear, the current budget is based on the cost of the Composition Studio, though a more accurate figure is currently being put together with a full proposed plan. The studio would alleviate pressure on the current recording studios which are often booked as a mix space, the proposed studio would also be available to a wider variety of students (Standard Composition pathway students would also be able to use this space to complete their final work) catering to a more diverse range of students. As student numbers increase year-on-year this would be a valuable asset that could also remain functioning as a solo rehearsal space shared with the Music Rehearsals department depending on where the time is required most. This space could easily be expanded to provide surround reproduction at only a marginal additional cost.''
