Audio Buffer is our monthly meet-up for audio developers and creative technologists — bridging academic theory and the gritty reality of releasing professional audio products. Founded and curated by Sinan Bokesoy (sonicPlanet), it's aimed at anyone developing software-based music tools — students, composers, sound designers, and creative technologists. A physical, workshop-style space to build, network, and stress-test ideas. Many thanks to MTUK for hosting our first four sessions.
