Nowadays, the music industry is thriving in each and every field from films to regional, classical to electronic dance music. The music, media and entertainment industries of Gujarat are making significant strides and in coming years, they will turn out to be sunrise sectors. Films, television and documentaries are all audio visual Medias which solely rely on Sound and Music Technology. Without sound technology, the cinematic experience is handicapped and lacks authenticity. Dialogues and music along with a whole lot of critical auditory components make a motion picture successful!

We believe that, if you want to excel in the art of sound engineering, it is essential to undergo rigorous training and gain in-depth knowledge about the creative and technical aspects of sound process.
