School of Synthesis – Christopher Coe’s Exclusive Live Session
Back by popular demand – Christopher Coe returns to Melbourne’s School of Synthesis for an exclusive live session this December 2024!
As part of the SOS Sunday Live Sessions, renowned techno innovator and electronic performer Christopher Coe returns to the School of Synthesis for a one-time, exclusive live workshop on live rig setup and performance.

Christopher Coe, co-founder of the live electronic label Awesome Soundwave with legendary DJ and producer Carl Cox, will recreate his live show setup, guiding you step-by-step through everything from rig assembly to live performance execution.
This immersive five-hour workshop offers a rare opportunity to collaborate directly with Christopher, covering essential aspects of building and performing a live set through discussions, demonstrations, and Q&A sessions. He’ll showcase his unique blend of outboard gear—including a custom Eurorack modular system, Moog and Elektron devices, Ableton with Ableton Push, and Pioneer’s V10 mixer—all enhanced with saturation and compression techniques for optimal sound quality.
