Roma Modulare 2024 announced as international synthesizer and music production expo in Italian capital city namesake

ROME, ITALY: organisers of Roma Modulare 2024 — the most important Italian event dedicated to modular and desktop synthesizers plus professional audio production — are proud to announce that it will be being held as a two-day international expo at Forte Trionfale in the centre of Rome on September 27-28…

As an international expo hosted in the capital city to which it, in part, owes its appropriate appellation, Roma Modulare 2024 readily represents the most important Italian music industry diary date for all musicians and audio professionals — particularly those who are passionate about modular synthesizers, as also alluded to by name. Notable headliners amongst its 80-plus exhibitors include German electronic musical instrument manufacturer Doepfer — duly credited with creating the Eurorack small-format modular system around which its ever- expanding A-100 ANALOG MODULAR SYSTEM is based, subsequently swelling to industry-standard status with hundreds of third-party manufacturers making compatible modules; Latvian Eurorack modules and desktop instruments creator Erica Synths — showcasing the intuitive nature of its PĒRKONS HD-01 desktop drum synth and aggressive timbres of its Black series Eurorack modules; hand-built Scottish Eurorack module-maker Instruō — instigating eye-catching aesthetics with the likes of its arbhar Granular Audio Processor and Lúbadh Dual Looper modules; American musical instruments and Eurorack solutions provider TipTop Audio — advancing production of Don Buchla’s trailblazing 200 series and converting it to Eurorack standards as the 200t series project; Mark Verbos-designed, Berlin-assembled Eurorack format synthesizer module specialist Verbos Electronics — whose Harmonic Oscillator module is now available in Eurorack for the first time; and American Eurorack modular synthesizers and guitar pedals producer WMD — back in business and announcing a new drum module; and many more.

The two-day international expo will be held in Rome’s Trionfale district within Forte Trionfale, one of 15 forts surrounding the eternal city. Built between 1882 and 1886 in an area covering 21 hectares, the military complex was famed for Italian aviator, aeronautical engineer, and Arctic explorer Umberto Nobile’s airship departing for the North Pole from one of the fort’s hangers in 1926. Today the location is part of an urban regeneration program, aiming to enhance creativity and create connections between people, an admirable objective that is not lost on Roma Modulare 2024’s organisers. “Our greatest desire is that Roma Modulare provides the best opportunity possible for musicians, producers, technicians, manufacturers, and even amateurs to come into contact with each other to strengthen the Italian music market and make it international,” announces Alberto Rossetto, Founder & CEO of Rome’s Milk Audio Store — specialising in Eurorack modules and studio equipment — which has partnered with K-ARRAY Audio Solutions — founded in Italy as one of the most innovative high-technology professional speaker manufacturers in the world — and Doc Servizi — an important cooperative created by a group of musicians to help navigate the challenging entertainment sector in Italy — to organise Roma Modulare 2024.

Although a 900 m2 area within Forte Trionfale will be dedicated to hosting Roma Modulare 2024’s 80-plus exhibitor booths, part of the venue will be dedicated to creating a Workshop Area, where, over two days, 20 speakers will take turns in presenting new products or exploring topics relating to the entertainment industry (with the full program listed here). But, by its very nature, Roma Modulare 2024 is also about the assemblage of and meeting with electronic music artists. As such, a Live Area will be opened up in the garden outside the venue between 1:00 pm to 11.30 pm each day, where electronic music artists will effectively play a non-stop live performance with their modular synthesizers. It is fair to say, then, that Roma Modulare 2024 promises to be an exciting event for all attendees, Italian or otherwise, and all appetites will, quite literally, be catered for with on-site food and beverages being served from opening (10:00 am) to closing (midnight).

Tickets to Roma Modulare 2024 are available to purchase as a two-day pass — priced at €22.00 EUR — or as one-day tickets for either September 27 or September 28 entry — each priced at €13.50 EUR — directly from here: https://www.romamodulare.it/tickets/ (All tickets include entry to the expo itself and an evening party, while entry is free for under 16s.)
