On the 30th of October Matttech Modular held an event at MadLab in Manchester to present and demo ‘Flexible Portable Eurorack Systems’. There was me (DivKid) presenting a drum and percussion based system. Matttech himself presenting a synth voice and Matthew Shaw present a more experimental “west coast” set up.

The event was casual throughout with lots of chat, questions and trying out things together through the evening.

Following on from me and Matttech was Matthew Shaw creating some West Coast and more experimental style patching inspired by Douglas Leedy’s piece ‘Entropical Paradise’.

Everything was caught on a single camcorder up above each case. We chose not to set up a second camera pointing at the people presenting as we wanted to create a casual event where people could play around and touch things and not potentially feel awkward with a camera right in their face. Audio was captured on a Zoom H4n.
