Serato’s 2025 Audio Affect Series Empowers Emerging Producers in South LA
Participants of the 2025 Audio Affect Series.
In late July, audio software company Serato wrapped the latest installment of its Audio Affect Series, a hands-on, community-driven music production workshop designed to empower emerging Black and Brown producers in South Los Angeles.
The three-day event held at Volume Studios in Inglewood, California, was a celebration of creativity, collaboration and skill-building, presented in partnership with TEC Leimert and Undefeated.
Attendees listened as artist mentors broke down tools like Serato Samples and the newly updated Hex FX into digestible, actionable workflows, showcasing how they apply these powerful resources to their own, award-winning projects. The 2025 workshop brought together a cohort of more than 50 creatives ranging in age, experience and musical background. From demos and keynote Q&As to breakout sessions focused on real-time beat making.
