Re: [LAD] [LAU] LAC is dead! Long live miniLAC!

Hi dear all lau-ers.

Last year LAC was amazing, let's see if I can make it this time.

This mini format could be grate to introduce a little more music jamming
and hands on workshops on recording, mixing, production, etc as Gerald
suggest.

Regards.

Re: [LAD] [LAU] LAC is dead! Long live miniLAC!

2016-02-05 Thread Gerald Mwangi 
Ok so I suggest only to bring Loudspeaker Monitors and Headphones, and 
at most class compliant usb audio adapters (no firewire). Actually  
builtin soundcards should suffice for demonstration purpose.


I have some thoughts on how to conduct the workshop:
-The workshop should take at maximum 1h 30mins.
-To kick off the workshop I will give a 15-20 min talk on my experiences 
to get impressions from the professionals among you (I consider myself 
an intermediate noob).


-The direction I want to go is aimed at the early stages in the mixing 
process: gating tracks and removing frequencies (initial EQing) to first 
clean the mix.
These are indispensable steps for any genre of music. Compressing should 
also be adressed


-Later steps of mixing such as accentuating instruments/voices by EQing, 
panning the stereo, adding reverb/other fx
should be left out/put at the end of the workshop as they are mostly 
subjective and music/genre dependent


-Then those who wish to get tips on their mixes shall get time slots of 
10mins on the speakers. This way 6-7 people can get tips on their mixes 
(only initial mix), and show their stuff.
-At the same time others can use headphones to directly apply the tips 
of the pro engineers


Discussions about recording and mastering should also be put at the end
What do you think?

The Idea is to gather people who have more knowledge/experience in
mixing then me, to help
others (that counts me :) ) on their current projects.
I can bring two sound cards (one usb, one firewire),  Studio
monitors, two pairs of headphones.
What do you think?

Harry, you beat me to it. :)

My proposal is a workshop with a practical introduction to Faust plugin
programming. Please check
http://minilac.linuxaudio.org/index.php/Workshop#Workshop_:_Plugin_Programming_with_Faust
for my blurb.

David, thanks so much again for pulling this off. I'm sure that this will
be a great event and I'm really looking forward to it! :)

Hello David!

Thank you very much for your announcement!

Because for many people it means arranging transport and housing, can you
say how certain these plans are? For instance, I see no announcement on
c-base website anywhere about this.

I know organizing is a super tough thing, just want to make sure there is
no misunderstanding and this announcement
should be considered a formal invitation to the event.



Sincerely,
Louigi.

Re: [LAD] [LAU] LAC is dead! Long live miniLAC!

2016-02-03 Thread David Runge 
Hey Louigi,

yes, this is a legit invitation, otherwise I wouldn't want to send this
out! :-)

c-base has this in its calendar (still titled "LAC16") and slightly
shifted date (time hole issues):
https://www.c-base.org/cal/month.php?cal=regular,seminare,termine=20160401

There are plenty of events taking place every week and the regular ones
are being shown on the main page.

In other news: http://frab.linuxaudio.org now properly redirects to
http://minilac.linuxaudio.org (for me), therefore the first might be
switched off eventually.

Best,
David
