dBs The Sound and Music Institute

At dBs, we see things differently. We always have. We started life in 1998 with the aim of changing the way audio technology education was taught. Since then, we’ve witnessed the power of sound to transform lives and unite communities.

A place where musicians, producers, sound engineers, programmers and digital creatives come together to challenge convention and break new boundaries. Bringing together a variety of sound and digital technology specialisms across the arts and sciences, we pioneer education and research that makes society a better place.
