"Torino, February 2017

SYNTH MEETING present SOUNDMIT (International Sound Summit)

We are pleased to finally announce the developments of the S YNTHMEETING o f Torino during the last months.
The SYNTHMEETING , which began in 2011 from an idea of F rancesco Mulassano a nd ran till 2016 together with Luca Torasso, will be part of a newest and bigger event.

After the success of the sixth edition which brought over 2 500 visitors and 60 international brands to Torino, we have decided to take a step forward.

In 2016 we set up the Associazione Culturale NOISECOLLECTIVE with the founding members being Francesco Mulassano, Luca Torasso and Luca Minelli ( www.noisecollective.net ) then we enlarged the network with some acquisitions. Are part of NOISECOLLECTIVE :

- SYNTHMEETING , the only event dedicated to the world of synthesizers and electronic musical instruments capable of involving over 2500 people and 60 international brands (data from 2016)
- The Facebook group SYNTH CAFÈ, with more than 14,000 members is a reference point in the field of synthesis and electronic music in Italy, created by L uca Minelli in 2011.
- The music portal ULTRASONICA h as been an online reference point since 2004 for music news and live event photos with an exclusive photographic archive which hosts over 12,000 photos.

- The Facebook group STRUMENTI MUSICALI USATI with 5400 members is among the largest and most active italian groups for buying and selling musical instruments on Facebook.

These acquisitions have immediately incremented the network guaranteeing a group of nearly 22,000 members.
After the closing of the sixth edition of the meeting we immediately started working on creating a new event which inherits the know-how gained through the experience of the SYNTHMEETING and the other events which followed in these months (MOD01, OpenDay, The Golden Synth Era with Felice Manzo, Arduino and Synth with Pier Calderan, Modular Synth Masterclass con Gino Robair).

SOUNDMIT - International Sound Summit ( www.soundmit.com)

SOUNDMIT comes from the idea of bringing to Torino the large musical instrument fairs of the past updating their content and contextualizing them according the current needs of the public and businesses.

SOUNDMIT is a trade fair and a cultural event which lasts for three days, the first of which will completely dedicated to professionals of the music sector.

In a welcoming and equipped setting, distributors will be able to meet their commercial agents, resellers, sponsored musicians and look for new business opportunities with manufacturers who will be present with their creations.

Accredited journalists will be able to view products in advance, interview operators of the sector, attend demonstrations dedicated to them and take photos and videos for their publications and websites.

Accredited musicians will be able to try out in advance the instruments on display without interruption and look for collaborations and endorsements with the companies present.

During the days open to the public there will be no lack of workshops, showcases and training , all of which accompanied by live exhibitions of national and i nternational musicians .

THE DATES
SOUNDMIT will take place on 3-4-5 November 2017 and will be part of the Torino Art Week which encompasses the art fairs ARTISSIMA , PARATISSIMA and THE OTHERS and the international electronic music festival C LUB2CLUB which will bring over 1 00,000 sepctators to Torino. Other events will be announced in the next months.

THE LOCATION

SOUNDMIT will be hosted at the historic LAVANDERIA A VAPORE , an international theater located in the prestigious setting of the Certosa Park of Collegno, just a few minute from the Torino city center.

PARTNERS
SOUNDMIT is organized by ASSOCIAZIONE CULTURALE NOISECOLLECTIVE in
collaboration with BLUESHOW S.r.l.

SOUNDMIT enjoys the patronage of the CITTÀ METROPOLITANA DI TORINO.

SOUNDMIT collaborates with B OOKING PIEMONTE for logistics and accommodations, through our site it will be possible to book hotels, connections to airports and stations and itineraries.

WHAT WILL I FIND AT SOUNDMIT
The heart of the event is, as always, the S YNTHMEETING which remains the only Italian event specialized in electronic musical instruments able to involve over 2500 people and 60 brands from all over the world (2016 data), SOUNDMIT will host:

SYNTHESIZERS
The best of worldwide production in the electronic musical instrument sector with special attention to small producers and the world of modular synthesizers. The section of SYNTHMEETING will be dedicated to this.

MAKERS
Over the past years, the makers have become a reference point in the music sector as well. There are in fact many projects started by small producers that have been transformed into successful products. A section of SOUNDMIT w ill be dedicated to them who will therefore have the possibility to meet companies interested in investing in their projects and to reach a specialized audience.

DJ POINT
The figure of the DJ is more and more similar to that of the Producer, it’s not rare that a company which has always been connected to the world of DJs begins to produce musical instruments designed for live performance and the integration of CDJ and Vinyl.

SOFTWARE
In the setting of musical production, the importance of software is more and more incisive. DAW, Plugins and Libraries are the terms that we have learned to recognize in recent years and to associate them to hardware, so much so that companies which used to only produce hardware have often become software houses and viceversa.

PRO AUDIO
Sound cards, monitors, outboard, soundproofing and furnishings for recording studios.
All the universo of PRO AUDIO for those who are just beginning and sector professionals.

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS
Following the desire to bring to Torino a 360 degree music fair, there will also be present producers of traditional and handmade musical instruments which have already agreed to participate.

RECORD LABELS
A space to encourage meetings between musicians and the players of the music world which produce and distribute music.

SCHOOLS AND ACADEMIES
Training and studying is one of the essential points for those who want to take on the profession of musician or producer. At S OUNDMIT t here will be a space dedicated to training service providers.
This is SOUNDMIT , by musicians for musicians. The program will be finalized in the coming months.
