Music is art and science.Inspiration and technique.Emotion and technology.The DNA of Microfusa is made of all that.
Our very name is a statement of principles: “Microfusa” is a combination of the prefix micro (from microcomputer) and fusa (a musical note whose duration is equal to thirty-second of a whole note). And since our beginnings, that is precisely what drives us: the passion for music, the fascination with sound, and the powerful bond that connects one with the other.
School Life
Students who easily come from different parts of the planet. People from here and there with a common goal, to learn and make the most of every minute to achieve their dream, sacrificing a little of their time and enjoying as much as possible.
The Microfusa school has a wide variety of courses and qualifications, each with different schedules and durations. In a short time, students meet classmates with diverse knowledge and similar interests with whom to share and collaborate on present and, who knows, future projects.
At Microfusa you will find a well-prepared teaching staff, with a high degree of experience in the subject and with a great desire to teach. Students can get a very high yield from the theoretical and practical classes, where they will find good explanations and demonstrations.
Our goal is to fuel the desire to learn
Microfusa offers students considerable extra time to practice in their classrooms and studios as often as possible. Our goal is to nurture their desire to learn.
In addition, throughout the school year, we hold various activities such as lectures (masterclasses), product demonstrations, visits...
At Microfusa, we support our students' initiatives and projects, and we listen to those who have proposals, work... We understand that getting started is not easy. If an opportunity arises to complete an internship at a company, establish a collaboration, find a job... we will do everything we can to make it happen. We cannot guarantee success for everyone, but we can guarantee that many professionals in our industry have gone through our training program.
Collaborative learning
The format used in the face-to-face courses is supported by our virtual learning environment. Face-to-face activities take place in the classrooms and studios of our centers, while their monitoring and evaluation are carried out on the virtual campus. These activities include collaborative exercises, lectures, discussion forums, group projects, among others.
The theoretical course content is accessible online and can be consulted at any time and on any device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone). The lectures provide the expert and professional perspective of the instructors or guest specialists in the field. The discussion forums encourage critical thinking and the exchange of ideas. The exercises and projects are designed to promote learning by doing and collaborative work with other students. All of this is supervised and guided by highly specialized instructors and tutors with extensive experience.
Barcelona Facilities
Computer labs
These are where the guided practical classes take place. We have a computer available for each student, on which the licenses for the most commonly used programs in the audiovisual field are installed. The teacher's computer is connected to the projection system and studio monitors to conduct classes as efficiently as possible. These classrooms are made available to students so they can study and practice.

Editing and mastering studios
These spaces are equipped for audio editing and mastering. They feature Avid Pro Tools systems, processing plugins (Waves), EQ and dynamics hardware (Avalon), and an acoustic monitoring system.
Recording and post-production studios
Fully equipped studios featuring the most common systems used in professional work. Real projects have been edited in these studios. Three of the studios feature an analog mixing desk (SSL XL DESK), a digital mixing desk (Yamaha PM5D), and a controller (Avid D-Command), respectively, thus reproducing the three possible configurations that can be found in a work environment. In addition, the equipment is completed with Avid Pro Tools HD recording systems, processors (Avalon, TL Audio, TC Electronic, Lexicon, etc.), monitoring systems (Genelec, Dynaudio, Yamaha, Event, Tannoy, Eve, etc.), and a complete set of microphones for each studio (Neumann, AKG, Sennheiser, Shure, Rode, Audio-Technica, etc.).
