Audio/Visual Console

Recital Studio is equipped with an AV console with the following functions: Raising and lowering the projector screen; projection from a laptop with a VGA port, the built in computer (requires UT EID), or the document camera; PA sound from the built-in computer or a 1/8in headphone jack.

For performances requiring the AV console, it is strongly encouraged that hall users book some time in the hall to familiarize themselves with the operation of the console.

Sound System and Support

Any event in the Recital Studio will have access to the house speaker system via the 1/8in jack connector. This may not be a good fit for your needs. Additional sound support requests should be sent to recording services (astoltz@austin.utexas.edu) at least one month prior to the recital date to determine availability of that service.

Scheduling & Hall Access

In order to use the hall, you must have a reservation. It is crucial that the schedule in the Recital Studio be strictly adhered to. Please double check your in-time and out-time in ArtsVision for every reservation you have in the hall. If you are confused about your reservation time, please contact the scheduling office. Early setups or staying late must be cleared with the scheduling office or the production manager.

If you have an ArtsVision reservation in RS the backstage door will be left unlocked for you. If you arrive to find the hall is locked, please check with the MSC first. If the MSC is closed, please contact the following staff members (in this order):

Russell Podgorsek (512-471-2725)
Travis Weller (tweller@austin.utexas.edu)
Page Stephens (512-232-6290)
