Sónar+D 2018: Soundcool on its accessible tool for musical collaboration

Published on Jun 16, 2018 FACTmagazine

"Cool sounds from Sónar+D 2018.

You might think that creating music and visuals collaboratively in real time would be the domain of experienced coders and algoravers, but as we found at Sónar+D – the sister event to Sónar's long-running Barcelona music festival – it doesn't have to be that way.

There, Spanish startup Soundcool gave us the lowdown on how its system of modules – controllable via phones, tablets and even Microsoft's Kinect and forthcoming Hololens – could make musical collaboration an accessible reality for the masses."
