Friday 7th and Saturday the 8th of February see’s the 2014 Music Education Expo held at the Barbican in London. This year we will be launching among many other things:

• JamPod™ iPad/Desktop based Tutor control – No longer will music teacher’s be tied to a desk. With our new iPad/desktop based tutor control for our JamClassHD and our award winning JamPod™ program you can control every element of your classroom, wherever you are (Yes that does include when your not in the room!)
• Korg Kross Keyboard – From 2014 we will be offering the Korg Kross keyboard as an option when installing your JamPod™. Why have we embraced it? Many reasons which we’ll demonstrate at the Music Expo. The main benefit is we can now prepare specific sounds and resources for you before we install or deliver your equipment. The first of these resources is:
• ‘and The Glory of the Lord’ Scheme of Work – From 2014 we will be ramping up our creation of specific content to help you in and out of the classroom. This scheme features Korg Kross content, Notion files, lesson resources, band lead sheets and a four week Jimi Hendrix ‘Manic Depression’ module. All will be available to download free of charge from 9pm on Friday the 7th of February from http://www.mixmusiceducation.co.uk/tutors/
• Korg Wavedrum Global – From mid 2014 we will start to integrate the new Korg Wavedrum Global into our projects. Come along and see this award winning drum in action within a JamPod™ at the Expo on Friday the 7th and Saturday the 8th of February

To celebrate these new innovations we are delighted to be sharing a stand at the Music Education Expo with our friends from Korg UK and SCV London. Throughout the two days of the show we will offer drop in sessions where you can come in and experience specific elements of what we do. Don’t worry if you cant make one of the session times, call in anytime and we’ll be ready to chat.
