FIRST TRY: Synthesis Workshop (Session 4)

We’re starting up a circuit of workshops, in partnership with Multnomah County Library, called FIRST TRY. The concept behind these sessions is to create an opportunity to learn about specific aspects of audio/video and help connect the dots on how you can get started + further your understanding.

Stoked to have @devonwho as a guest presenter for this series on synthesis. Devon is a major influence for us at 606 with the art he’s put out and has been teaching sound design through synthesis for a while now. He’s a great person and it’s an honor to have him in the loop. There will be laptops available for use if you don’t have one with Ableton (main tool we’re utilizing) installed and all the sessions are FREE.

Come hang out and make some bleeps and bloops with us. If you never thought you’d explore something like this - there’s a first try for everything.
