Writer, composer and producer David Revill presents guest lectures and, as an Avid Certified Instructor, Pro Tools and S6 training programmes. He also publishes on musical analysis, multimedia and intermedia — he wrote the authorised biography of John Cage — and is now working again in sociological analysis and social activism.

David Revill has worked on compositional projects throughout Europe and North America, and has held compositional residencies in Austria, France, Germany and the United States.

David Revill is an Avid Certified Instructor for Pro Tools and the S6 worksurface, and presents workshops and guest lectures concerning Pro Tools, the S6 — and engineering and production in general — worldwide for individuals, companies, colleges and universities.
