SAE Institute Dubai was founded in 2005 in order to bring expert training and education to the fields of audio and film in the Middle East, providing a local base for a global outlook on the new media industries.
"The brand provides easy accessibility to treat room problems without having to invest in custom and expensive treatment, given the limited budget students have. Providing this solution into our studios, students can practice their acoustic studies and evolve their listening experience," commented Randula de Silva, SAE's audio course coordinator.
"It is also very easy to cover acoustic concepts. When we teach acoustics in our curriculum we have several stages where we measure room responses, with and without treatment, having this brand that employs impalers to place and remove them from walls makes this easy to adopt into our teaching. Having this facility we are not obliged to have one static setup in the various studios, we can move them around and have different options based on our teaching requirements."
