Today is a great day to checkout the MESS collection – one of the largest publicly accessible synth collections in the world – try your hand at using rare and iconic electronic instruments, ask questions, meet other sound enthusiasts, and fall in love with a Moog, Korg, Buchla or two!
Please note:
Our open days are a great opportunity for everyone to try lots of different instruments for a day. So everyone gets a turn exploring the collection, we won’t be facilitating any recordings during the open day.
