Lighthouse

Online Masterclass with electronic music producer K Man (The Phantom) that will introduce you  to Modular Synthesis using VCV Rack.

<p>Modular synthesis is a powerful tool for sound design and composition, but the high price of the equipment is a significant barrier to entry. The free software, <a href="https://vcvrack.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">VCV Rack</a>, offers a way to understand how modular works but without the cost associated with hardware.</p><p>In this masterclass,<a href="https://soundcloud.com/kman-the-phantom" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"> K Man (The Phantom)</a> will demonstrate the ways in which modular workflows relate to ‘DAW’ style electronic music workflows; and how techniques learnt from using other software can be applied to modular synthesis. In the second part of the session, the focus will turn to the unique qualities of modular synthesis with demonstrations of its potential, to give ideas of starting points for experimentation and exploration.</p><p>This masterclass is intended for anyone new to modular synthesis, but with experience of using music software such as Ableton, Logic, Fruity Loops or Cubase.</p><p>Link to our website page: <a href="https://lighthouse.org.uk/events/introduction-to-modular-synthesis" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a><a href="https://www.lighthouse.org.uk/events/intro-to-modular-2" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.lighthouse.org.uk/events/intro-to-modular-2</a></p><h3>Accessibility</h3><ul><li>Participants will receive a link to the event on the day of the workshop: Saturday 31st July 2021. </li><li>This event will take place online via platform/software Zoom.
