London Synthesizer Expo 2016 @ KMR Audio
Written by Tom Lewis
We're exceptionally pleased to announce that we're hosting the second annual London Synthesizer Expo at KMR Audio, at our North London showroom on Friday 13th of May 2016.
This is your chance to get wiggling with some of the latest synthesis innovations, meet the designers and play with some of the most sought after new releases. Plus free beer. Whether you're a seasoned modular user, sound design aficionado or new to synthesis in general, there will be something for everyone. Did we mention the beer?
What is better than being surrounded by loads of synths, boutique pro audio gear and cold beer...........? We thought so to.
Entry is completely free on the day and we strongly encourage anyone who is even remotely interested in synthesis or sound to attend! Feel free to bring your synths and sound making toys along, we've got plenty of speakers, headphone and inputs at our disposal.
