Last Updated:
Table of Contents
E104 is the Sound Department headquarters, where one can find the FVSound community: Faculty, Staff, and Student Technicians. On weekdays during work hours, the E104 Helpdesk is staffed by Student Technicians who, in addition to faculty and staff, are available to accept recording session requests, provide technical assistance, and answer questions about sound recording, editing, and mixing, as well as a wide range of filmmaking topics.
Visit the Recording Sessions, Sound Mixes, or Layback pages for more information on the services offered in FVSound.
The helpdesk hours are typically 9am to 4pm. An exact schedule for Fall 2026 will be released once classes start.
