Music Technology Lab
The Harrington Music room has relocated for 2008-09 into room 226 and the adjoining secondary computer lab. The new music room has a lot more room for movement, instrument storage and allows us to expand our music technology into a working Music Tech Lab! In 2006, the VH1 Save the Music Foundation donated $25,000 worth of keyboard instruments to Harrington. The 16 digital keyboards are networked together and connected to the computers through a MIDI interface to allow the instruments and computers to "talk". Each "station" has headphones for two students, a digital keyboard, a computer connected to ethernet, and a MIDI interface. Students in the lab will be using the internet and music software to review music concepts, playing games, composing and creating music, and learning basic piano keyboarding skills.
Here is a picture of the lab in the early stages of organization:
