You are invited to joins us for a workshop GRM Tools – Spaces, which will be conducted by Diego Losa on Friday, 13 May 2022 at 10 a.m. in HEKA.

The GRM Tools is a collection of amazing plug-ins that have been used and developed by most renowned composers and sound designers around the world. The new Spaces plug-ins allow you to explore and fragment the diffusion space of sound-based compositions, make the sounds move around, and filter and delay them in a reinvented multichannel space.

As the number of places is limited, we invite you to register mauricio.valdes@pina.si. You can apply until Thursday, the 12 May 2022.
