Anyone who is interested in building, modifying or repairing synthesizers and other devices is very welcome to join us. Don't expect tuition by a teacher, but rather a forum where we can learn from eachother. Nevertheless, we will organize lectures, workshops and DIY evenings for beginners and advanced builders alike, within the context of these get-togethers.

This time we present three advanced modular synth and DIY instrument builders that started their building careers in the last few years;

As of 1 May 2011, EMS will be part of Statens musikverk (Music Development and Heritage Sweden), a brand new authority. Nothing will change apart from our e-mail addresses (in due course) and our billing address. We will still be doing the same things, i.e. provide studios for professional composers, teach, collaborate with various other institutions and receive guest composers.
