SynthFest France 2019 Alex4 Video

Published on Jun 19, 2019 Alex4

"Synth Fest France was a nice and very cozy event held by synth lovers for synth lovers and more specially for those who are the future synth lovers with a super social taste. Thanks to the whole team for your ambitious work!
Well prepared and organised it was a pleasure taking part.

We did two workshops trying to break down modular to its essentials for easy understanding of the core principle - it’s all about fluctuating voltages and routing them to your own needs a.k.a. setting up a program.
Located in the rooms of a former girls school on a hill next to the shores of the mighty river Rhone.
The city of Nantes itself has a rich history and offers a lot of interesting places from past to present."

Andreas Schneider: "We should stop buying shit from China"

"Andreas Schneider, the mind behind Superbooth —the new trade show for synthesizers, based in Berlin—, talks about his reasons for leaving Musikmesse, an some other hot issues about the synth manufacturing sector."

SUPERBOOTH16 in Funkhaus Berlin Set for March 31 - April 2

Many of you will be familiar with previous Superbooths hosted at the Musikmesse. All of were the brainchild of Andreas Schneider of Schneiders Buero, Schneiders Laden, Stromkult, and Alex4. This year he is hosting the Superbooth at its own event and it looks like it will be massive. For a list of exhibitors see this page. The event runs March 31st – April 2nd
 in Berlin. The following is the official press release:

"The first annual SUPERBOOTH16, music and culture fair will be taking place from March 31st - April 2nd in Berlin. What started as a small stand on the Musikmesse in Frankfurt, will now be presented in Berlin as a broadly programmed Culture festival organized by SchneidersBuero in Berlin. The exhibition will take place at the historic Funkhaus, which is a former German radio station that will provide an uncompromised acoustic and architectural setting.

Over the last 15 years, SchneidersLaden has grown to become a leader in the distribution and marketing of innovative musical and sound instruments in Berlin and throughout Europe. The founder and CEO, Andreas Schneider, can be attributed as one of the main worldwide drivers behind the present modular synthesizer HYPE. One might consider the worldwide distribution and purchase of electronic instruments is the basic reason for electronic music.

The present momentum is so strong, that even the larger well known manufacturers have invested in developing new concepts to compete with the small manufacturers.

SUPERBOOTH16: Idea and Beginnings

Although Berlin is one of the most modern electronic music centers on the globe, it has never had an adequate music fair to support the scene. With SUPERBOOTH16, this will change the landscape. SUPERBOOTH16 will be the large format presentation of the stand which has been seen at the Frankfurter Musikmesse over the last 15 years. The stand magnetized the visitors to see directly what one can do with these instruments. Many of which are hand made and only available in limited runs.

Over 100 exhibitors are registered for SUPERBOOTH16 with the larger synthesizer names like Yamaha and Roland, classic specialists like Dieter Doepfer (Original Kraftwerk Synthesizer maker) through many self-made and smaller exhibitors like Make Noise and others. Also, classic manufacturers of keyboard instruments like Dave Smith and leading software companies like Ableton or Native Instruments will also be present to show and demonstrate their latest developments.
SUPERBOOTH16: The Fair as Culture Festival.

To promote and support the living and evolving Berliner Music scene, SUPERBOOTH16 provides a base concept of an instrument fair and cultural program. It is a living come-together for manufacturers, dealers, musicians, tinkerers, new-comers and the scene.

Aside from the mixture of interesting instruments, over the course of three days, there will be daily presentations, demonstrations, discussions and DIY workshops. Each evening there will be a night program that will be presented with well-known artists involved.

On the weekend nights, April 1st and 2nd, SUPERBOOTH16 will hold a large concerts and party in the special Funkhaus Culture Hall where notable artists will be performing.

SUPERBOOTH16: The Berliner Funkhaus as Special Location

The selection of the Funkhaus as a fair location is an architectural and integration win. The design of the fair not only presents the incoming exhibitors a rare ambient, but integrates the presently running or in operation recording studios and function halls. This special integration will allow for a very high level of acoustics for the presentation of instruments, which is quite rare for a musical fair.


Schneider also has made travelling to and from the Funkhaus a special experience. A free boat shuttle is being provided from Mitte near the Jannowitzbrücke and Chinese Embassy which will take visitors and exhibitors through a small tour of the Berliner Spree and land directly at the Funkhaus.

Further information to the concept, the exhibitors and program can be found at www.superbooth.com.

Buchla Opens First-Ever European Distribution & Service Center

"April 10, 2013, Musikmesse, Frankfurt, Germany: Buchla Electronic Musical Instruments (BEMI) is pleased to announce the appointment of Alex4 Distribution GmbH as exclusive European distributor for all BEMI products, including the 200e-series modular synthesizer system and the new Music Easel Electronic Music Box. Effective immediately, all European Buchla fans and customers can turn to Alex4 for everything from full systems to individual modules and parts, as well as for outstanding repair service.

Attendees of this week's Musikmesse Frankfurt show are invited to visit Alex4 on Stand C51 in Hall 5.1 to check out samples from the current BEMI product lineup, including the Skylab 10-panel modular synthesizer, a custom-configured 18-panel 200e system, and the reissue of the revered Music Easel, a portable, performance-oriented instrument with a break-through price point that has put the synth on everyone's "must-have" list.

"We couldn't be more thrilled to have Alex4 stocking and selling all of our products," noted Lewis Chiodo, a BEMI managing partner and the company's director of international sales. "Alex4 and their sister company Schneidersladen have long been the go-to companies for innovative, high-end electronic music products, and we're extremely pleased to now have Buchla instruments so expertly represented in Europe."

Alex4 will also be responsible for providing repair service throughout the continent---a real bonus for Buchla users who, until now, needed to ship modules back to the U.S. for servicing.

For more information, please visit BEMI at www.buchla.com, Alex4 at www.alex4.de, and Schneidersladen at www.schneidersladen.de.
