Walk-up satellite studio...

While we offer hundreds of staff-led Youth Express studio and field workshops annually, we also wanted to create a walk-up experience that teens could access and operate independently. In April 2019, we launched our first Youth Express Satellite Studio. The studio makes use of a custom-made soundproof booth made by Framery (Tampere, Finland) fitting up to six teens along with an SLB-configured digital mixer, sampling device and audio recorder made by Rode (Sydney, Australia) as well as headphones, microphones, Bluetooth connections and cables. While guidesheets and ideas are provided, the studios is designed for self-exploration. An interface is provided that allows users to email their audio to Youth Express for airplay if desired.
