TORINO SYNTH MEETING Set for June 7, 2015 - Call for Exhibitors

"TORINO SYNTH MEETING 2015
FIFTH EDITION June 7, 2015

Dear Exhibitor/Distributor/Producer

The​TORINO SYNTH MEETING​(TSM) engine is back in gear!
After last year's success which saw the participation of 6 professional exhibitors, numerous presenters and private collectors, 1 workshop, 2 concerts, 2 venues​and an increasing number of visitors,​the event dedicated to synthesizers and electronic musical instruments is back for the fifth edition and bigger than ever.

Strengthened by our experience accumulated in the previous years and by the positive feedback that we have received so far, our aim with this “Fifth” edition is to, through the help of the participants, create a meeting even richer in content both from the point of view of exhibition as well as debate and public discussion.

Considering the success of the fourth edition and its perfect synergy, this year's technical partner will once again be​DISCONET.IT

Articles, videos and photos of all the previous editions are available on our website:

WWW.SYNTHMEETING.COM

WHAT IS THE TORINO SYNTH MEETING?

TSM​started in 2011 from an idea of​Francesco Mulassano​(Ultrasonica.it, Noisecollective.net, Urbanspaceman, Space Aliens From Outer Space, Tacuma Orchestra) together with​Luca Torasso​(Sandblasting, Noisecollective.net, Rustblade Records).

The idea was to create a day of meeting and trading between collectors, musicians and anyone passionate for the world of synthesizers and electronic musical instruments in general.

An appointment where one can see and try rare and unusual instruments as well as buy, sell and trade.

A meeting point for those who share the same passion and an occasion to give a space to new artists through a series of concerts and performances.

Starting with the fourth edition, it's the ideal stage for companies in the sector. The event is in fact open to producers, importers and distributors of musical hardware and software. These participants, identified as​Pro Exhibitors,​will have an exhibition space dedicated to them and, upon request, a stage area for presenting their own products.

Participants of the previous editions have been:

MIDIWARE,​MIDIMUSIC,​GRP SYNTHESIZER,​SOUND MACHINES,​ LEPLOOP,​KINETIKLABORATORIES,​DISCONET,​ENRICO COSIMI,​PIER
CALDERAN.​

ARE YOU A PRO EXHIBITOR?
If you would like to participate in the TSM, please contact at​p​ro@synthmeeting.com​. Requests for information or intention to participate is in now way binding.

ARE YOU A PRIVATE EXHIBITOR?

Published on Mar 5, 2015 DivKidMusic

"A great CV to trigger / gate module from Frequency Central. Two inputs (one unipolar and one bipolar) clock input to only sample the CV inputs with a clock or high gate signal and 8 outputs switchable between triggers or gates.

Hit like and subscribe for more videos every week and check the Patreon link below to see how you can support my channel.

"CV to trigger/gate generator

-It analyses incoming CV and breaks it down into steps
-2 inputs each with attenuator, one is 0v to 5v, the other bipolar +/-5V
-each CV attenuator can also be used as offset if no CV is present
-the clock input makes the module just sample the CV inputs when a clock is present

It can make an analogue sequencer into a drum machine for example
Filter Pingssssssss!
work as Gate to Trigger converter
If the input is an ADSR you can patch further ADSRs to the outputs for complex envelopes ;-)
if the input is after touch cv you can use that to trigger envelopes
20 mA +12V
10 mA -12V
0 mA 5V
35 mm Depth
Available as an assembled module and as a DIY project."
