Readipop XOX 101

In this intimate introduction to the XOX studio you will get hands-on with the stars of our XOX classic vintage synth and drum machine collection:

• SH-101 mono synthesiser. Learn basic synth techniques and create a melody with the step sequencer.
• TB-303 ‘Bassline'. Programme some acid bass lines and add vintage FX.
• TR- 808 Rhythm Composer. Learn ‘TR-rec' beat programming (still used on all Roland beatboxes) on using the drum machine that kick started everything.
• TR- 909 Rhythm Composer. Build a groove with the drum sounds that built house and techno.
• Juno-6 Poly synth. Add lush synth pads or use the famous ‘Stranger Things’ arpeggiator.

Please note: there will be an XOX CAFE event at Readipop Studios after your 101 Session between 2-5pm with live electronic sets, synth discussions and demos. This is free entry and you are welcome to stay and join us for this.All money raised by XOX 101 sessions help Readipop with our core charity work making music accessible to young people locally from all walks of life.
