GEAR

This post shares some of the gear that you can check out from the new school and some gear that I have that you can reserve.

New School Gear

There are a variety of sound-related items you can checkout at the New School.
Visit the EQC site for details about their equipment. You’ll notice that there’s a link to a PDF that includes most (though i have noticed mot ALL) of their gear. Here are some screenshots of those pages.

TWO NOTES:

  1. Be sure you’ve signed the yearly contract to check out equipment
  2. Look for announcments on their site that might restrict your access. For example in Fall 2023 there was this message:

There will be NO WALK-IN checkouts available from November 27 until December 11. Please use the link below to WebCheckout to make a reservation.
