Central Recording Services is responsible for recording School of Music events.
Events automatically scheduled to be recorded for the School of Music archive include:
- Faculty Artist Series
- Ball State Symphony Orchestra, Wind Ensemble, Symphony Band, New Music Ensemble, Jazz Ensemble 1, Jazz Ensemble 2, Campus Orchestra, Campus Band, Concert Choir, Chamber Choir, University Choral Union, and Opera Theatre
- Graduate recitals
Events not on the automatically scheduled list must be requested, approved and paid in full no later than two weeks before the event.
Student recital recording is $30 and includes a digital download.
Approved events will be posted on the Central Recording Services calendar.
Recordings are archival only and are not available for immediate distribution. Recordings meant for distribution are subject to copyright law and must obtain proper mechanical licensing.
Students Copies
Students may purchase a personal digital download of any large ensemble concert in the CRS archive for $10 per concert.
Sound Reinforcement Support
Sound reinforcement may be requested for School of Music events. Once it is determined what equipment will be needed, Central Recording Services will set up and run the equipment for the event at no charge. Services must be requested no later than two weeks before the event.
Student Recording Sessions
Central Recording Services can record, edit, mix, and master your audition tape, competition entry, etc. Estimate length of session to set up, record, and edit (two-hour minimum). Preferred date(s) should be at least two weeks in advance. Two-hour minimum payment is due when you submit the request.
Request Our Services
Once Central Recording Services receives your request, an engineer will be assigned and contact you to arrange a session time. If you’re booking School of Music rooms outside the recording studios (Hahn Recital Hall or Sursa Performance Hall), arrangements will be made through Patricia Burton.
