Recording Basics

Learn the basics of recording and start turning your musical ideas into reality in this hands-on beginner workshop.

Time to get those ideas on the record!

Recording Basics is an introductory workshop for anyone wanting to start capturing their musical ideas. Designed for complete beginners, this is the place to learn about the fundamental tools, workflows and creative possibilities of recording sounds from hardware instruments (such as synthesisers, drum machines and samplers) using your laptop.

Using the MESS collection and with hands-on support by our incredible facilitators, participants will work through the recording path from instrument to laptop and build a working knowledge of all the important steps in between.

No prior knowledge needed, just your laptop. Dive in alongside fellow curious makers and break through the technical barrier between your musical imagination and that little red “record” button.

This workshop is for participants aged 18+
