RMSM #169: Granular Synth Meet (Online)

This event is on Zoom. Once you register, you’ll receive the Zoom meeting link in your confirmation email.

Description

This online meetup dives into granular synthesis techniques, tools, and workflow.

We’ll kick off with presentations featuring real-world tips and workflows from members using granular gear in all kinds of creative contexts, from studio work to live performance.

After the presentations, we’ll open it up for a guided discussion where attendees can share thoughts and tips on their favorite instruments, FX, and workflows.

Whether you’re deep into granular synthesis or just granular-curious, come for a taste of the gear and leave with inspiration and practical takeaways you can apply right away with your own granular hardware or software tools.
