Are you crazy about synths, samplers and drum computers? Do you have homemade electronic/experimental instruments or a real modular system?

Would you like to try them out and exchange ideas with others? Then our free sound lab is for you!

In these sessions, we work with all kinds of electronic instruments, analogue or digital. Is your instrument your DAW? That's fine too!

The focus of each meeting is determined by the instruments and ideas that the participants bring to the table at the start.

We aim for an anything-goes vibe among musical allies, where you can experiment freely with soundscapes, ambient tracks, noise, but also techno, house, EDM or hip hop beats ... Together we'll search for sounds and rhythmic or melodic motifs in the moment.

Please note: this is not a course, but rather a jam session with electronic instruments. Active participation and experimentation are paramount. Facilitator Peter is mainly there to keep everything running smoothly and to provide technical support where necessary and possible.

Producer? Then be sure to check out our brand new CoLab sessions in February and May.

Practical

The sound lab sessions are separate events. You are welcome when you can, and don't need to notify if you can't come. Registration is not obligated, but very much appreciated. Any doubts or questions? Send an email to reindert@wisper.be

Bring your own sound carrier / instrument. WISPER will provide a PA system on which we will amplify everyone.
Producer and feel like jamming? You can bring your laptop with DAW and headphones. Your audio interface, midi controller or keyboard and your favorite gear are all welcome too!

Producer and want to jam along? Bring your laptop with a DAW and headphones. Your audio interface, MIDI controller or keyboard, and your favorite gear are all welcome too!

Level of experience

Level 2: everyone is welcome, and no prior experience is required!

The sound labs are open to anyone who wants to jam together (electronically). You don't need tons of experience; we'll learn from each other and from the music! This course works best if you have some material of your own.
