The DIY drone synthesizer workshop
Peter Edwards (US)

Drone Lab Workshop:
Build an analog Drone Synth, rhythm box & effects processor.
Cost- $150. This fee covers all materials and necessary tools.
Difficulty- mid to low but may prove very challenging for someone with NO soldering experience.
In this workshop each participant will build a complete Drone Lab kit. Options for upgrading and modification will be discussed though out the workshop.
 Workshop is expected to take 3-4 hours. All participants are encouraged to participate in a group drone performance on the 22nd @ 21:00.

What is the drone lab?:
The Drone Lab is a 25 knob, 4 voice analog drone synth, rhythm generator and FX processor. It is capable of generating rich, textured soundscapes, hypnotic drones and complex rhythmic sequences. It features a series of filter and distortions circuits and an audio input jack. This allows it to be used as an effects processor for external audio signals as well as a stand alone sound generator.
