[Community Training] Music Generation for Newbies / Learn to Solder workshop -- SEC-T ArduTouch music synthesizer (Thursday)
Learn to solder by making a way-cool, powerful music synthesizer, and
learn how to make cool music, sound, (and noise!) with computer chips
(The fancy word for making sound with a computer chip is Digital Signal Processing or DSP).
The SEC-T Music Synthesizer Badge kit (based on Mitch’s ArduTouch is an open hardware Arduino-compatible music synthesizer kit with a built-in Touch Keyboard, and with built-in speaker/amplifier. It is a really nice performing musical instrument.
This workshop is for total newbies to learn to solder.
This workshop is for total newbies to make their own SEC-T Music Synthesizer Badge and learn to make music, sound (and noise!) with computer chips.
Attendees take their completed synthesizer home at the end of the workshop.
The SEC-T Music Synthesizer comes pre-programmed with a way cool synthesizer. And Mitch will show you how to re-program it with other way cool (and totally different) synthesizers, and how to make your own synthesizers.
For ages 10 - 100.
