ICMP London Tech Lab

Upload, Store and Share

All the tech in the world is no good without somewhere to store your files. That’s why every ICMP student will get their own free subscription to MS Office 365, which provides them with up to 1TB of cloud storage. And it goes without saying that all our buildings are equipped with unlimited superfast WiFi for speedy uploading and file sharing.

Brush Up on Your Music Knowledge 

Though our tech labs are the ideal place to make music, they’re also great for academic-related work and general use, whether that’s studying, researching, cooking up a music business proposal, or writing an essay or two. With so many machines available, there's always a quiet space on offer.   

Our Extensive range of Kit

Whether you’re toying with ideas or already putting tracks together, you can freely experiment, edit and mix with an impressive range of tech. Industry titans like Ableton, Pro Tools and Logic Pro X give you all the tools you need to compose, record and master your sound, while Audient helps you get to grips with sound engineering for simple, yet powerful, audio capture.
