They say May is the month of rebirth. So, may we all gather again in May and re-calibrate our collective oscillators.
On May 18, we’re moving past the factory settings and diving into the human signal chain. Connect Beyond the Preset is an evening dedicated to the tools that make us move and for all the creators, builders, tinkerers, and the curious who know that the most powerful “plugin” in any studio is a fresh perspective.
Move away from the isolated glow of your laptop screen and come into a space where conversation flow as freely as the voltage in a modular rack.
It is happening on:
Monday, May 18 at 6:00 p.m. CET
FORUM Factory, Besselstraße 13-14, 10969 Berlin
This time, we’re opening the floor to the people building the future of expression.
Innovation isn’t just about faster processors; it’s about deeper connections. We gather to bridge the gap between the code and the chord, between the builder and the player. This is a networking event in its truest sense. No stiff business cards or corporate bios. Just like-minded people from all areas of life, united by the passion for music and tech, sharing drinks, swapping ideas, and finding their next creative partner-in-crime.
Whether you work in the music business, you’re a founder, a musician, a developer, or simply someone who loves where music and technology meet, this evening is made for you.
FREE ENTRY. FREE DRINKS!
Do not sleep on this!
RSVP BELOW!
PRESENTATIONS
Expect an evening with local innovators on stage presenting the tools they’ve built to make music education more accessible, push the boundaries of music production, and create new ways of visual expression through music.
The presentations are more like open-source conversations. Meet the local community members who are building bespoke tools and hear the stories of why they built them. No corporate sales pitches. Just raw, creative problem-solving and inspiration.
Presenter I
Andreas Jacobi (CEO und Co-Founder Audiotool)
Making music together is magic. For too long, software got in the way. Audiotool is the only DAW built for collaboration from the ground up — free, browser-based, real-time multiplayer. Now we’re opening the infrastructure — so the next generation of music tools can be built multiplayer, and the ones you already love can become it too.
Presenter II + III +IV
will follow soon.
