Introduction Workshop Willem Twee Studios

This workshop is designed to give you an insight into the world of electronic music. The workshop includes a brief general introduction, a tour, and hands-on experience in our two main studios: Studio 1, equipped with unique test and measurement equipment from the 1950s and 1960s, such as sine wave oscillators and various filters, and Studio 2, featuring iconic synthesizers from the 1970s and 1980s, such as the ARP 2500 and the Serge Modular System. We will also visit the brand-new Studio 3.
The workshop is also an ideal starting point if you want to take the extended studio course or a specific workshop at Willem Twee Studios but are not yet sure of your preference. Additionally, it can be a launchpad to book a studio with friends to create beautiful sounds for your music!
