Would you like to learn how to use effects pedals?
Do you feel overwhelmed when you look at a mixing board (me too!), but want to get more comfortable?
Are you curious about singing or playing your instrument through pedals and other effects?
Come to Pedal Petting Zoo!
These sessions are a relaxed space to explore effects pedals, synthesizers, and other sound-shaping tools together. We’ll experiment with different setups, talk through how signals flow, and try things out in real time.
You’ll leave with:
a clearer understanding of how effects pedals and synths work
ideas for experimenting with your own sound
more confidence asking questions and exploring music tech
supporting others
No prior experience is required!
Pedals and synths will be available to play with, and you’re welcome to bring your own.
Especially welcoming non-traditional instruments (not just electric guitar or bass), and femme, queer, and BIPOC folks!
