SOUNDMIT RETURNS TO TURIN FROM JULY 4 TO 6, 2025



Press release follows:

SOUNDMIT RETURNS TO TURIN FROM JULY 4 TO 6, 2025: THE 14TH EDITION FOCUSED ON INNOVATION AND PASSION FOR MUSIC After a one-year break, Soundmit – the international event dedicated to synthesizers, modular synth, professional audio technologies, and vintage instruments – returns for its 14th edition. From July 4 to 6, 2025, the Sporting Dora in Torino will host an unmissable three-day event with exhibitions, live electronic music performances, and opportunities for industry professionals and enthusiasts to meet.

A RENEWED EVENT, A STRATEGIC NEW DATE

"After over a decade of success, Soundmit took a pause in 2024," says organizer Francesco Mulassano. "This break allowed us to work on an even richer and more engaging format. The new timing in July is not coincidental: the proximity to the Kappa FuturFestival, one of Europe's most renowned electronic music events, creates an ideal context for Soundmit. The presence of an already targeted audience increases visibility and visitor attendance, while still maintaining our autonomy as an independent and unique event."

A STRATEGIC OPPORTUNITY FOR VISITORS AND EXHIBITORS
Situated just 100 meters from Kappa FuturFestival, Sporting Dora is located in one of the most vibrant areas for festival-goers, offering Soundmit's exhibitors exclusive access to an audience already passionate about electronic music and audio technologies.

For exhibitors, this strategic location represents a valuable opportunity to reach new contacts, expand their network, and showcase their products in an international and dynamic setting.

INNOVATION AND A PASSION FOR VINTAGE
Soundmit remains the meeting point for international exhibitors and enthusiasts, offering spaces dedicated to the latest innovations in synthesizers and professional audio technologies, as well as vintage instruments that have shaped the history of music. This edition will also feature live electronic music performances, providing participants with a more immersive and complete experience.

AN UNMISSABLE INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE
Soundmit is a unique opportunity to discover cutting-edge instruments, immerse oneself in the allure of vintage gear, and experience electronic music from every angle. Industry professionals, artists, and curious attendees can engage in an interactive and stimulating environment that has earned Soundmit a central role in the international music community.

JOIN US FROM JULY 4 TO 6 AT SPORTING DORA IN TURIN!
Don’t miss the 14th edition of Soundmit: three days dedicated to music, technology, and the passion for sound.

"A composition using the ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Moog One, ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, and a modular synthesizer. While the Moog One and Prophet-10 are played manually, the modular synth produces drone sounds with Plaits and clicking sounds with the STO.

The clicking sounds are randomized using the ‪@4msCompany‬ Quad Clock Distributor and Monome White Whale."

One of my favorite christmas songs from the late 70s.
Wonderful Christmas by Paul McCartney and The Wings
Written by Paul McCartney (1979)

Featured the Moog Source and the Oberheim OB-X.
(Original SC Prophet5)

This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks. My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers. Check out the original songs with the original artists here on YouTube. Thank you. RetroSound synthesizer demo videos since january 2007. Everything is free. If you like my work, you can also support me with the purchase of my merchandise stuff or my music. Shop: https://retrosound.creator-spring.com/ Bandcamp: https://retrosound.bandcamp.com/album..."

Akai EWI3020M Modifications


video upload by Maffez Synthmods

"Came across this lovely module by chance - CEM3374 and CEM3378, wow! Easy to mod as well :) gave it some more filter responses, more FM/FFM depth, and bumped the signal level up a bit. Micro-mono-xpander-light, heh..."

PERfourMER MKII - Sync Session #2: Total Sync


video upload by vermonagear

"On most synthesizers with hard sync, all oscillators receive the same information via MIDI or, if available, from the internal keyboard.

The structure of the *PERfourMER MKII*, however, allows the oscillators to be hard-synced while each can play an individual sequence.

In this video, we send three different MIDI sequences to the PERfourMER MKII and play with different sync combinations. We added a little reverberation to each synthesizer channel and combined it with some rhythm, played with the *DRM1 MKIV*."

SILHOUETTE SPORT kickstarter demo - 19th december 2024


video upload by Pit Przygodda

"This video introduces the portable audiovisual synthesizer SILHOUETTE SPORT on occasion of its kickstarter campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

The SILHOUETTE SPORT is the new forthcoming synthesizer made by Pit Przygodda. It is the new sprout in the SILHOUETTE synthesizer family, joining the SILHOUETTE EINS. Infos: http://silhouette-synthesizer.de/

Enjoy! Join!"



The SILHOUETTE SPORT is an innovative audiovisual synthesizer that transforms visuals and motion to sound and rhythm. The interdisciplinary approach liberates the inherent connection between various senses and actions like seeing, moving and listening. To play along these intersections wakes basic intuitions and leads to a widespread field of cross-sensual beauty, poetry and joy.

The SPORT has a camera on board, and it is portable: Ready to search and find visuals in the outside world to play with - dance like. It can also load picture and movie files. The special 'Vimpler' ('visual sampler') function closes the audiovisual circuit: Incoming audio gets transformed to a picture, ready for artistic sound resynthesis.

The SILHOUETTE SPORT is invented and build by German musician and artist Pit Przygodda, and it is the new smaller-in-size-and-prize sprout in the SILHOUETTE synthesizer family and joins the bigger SILHOUETTE EINS (2021).

visually created audio waves (timbres)
