Time for another September Equinox event dwarf

The event will be on electro-music radio on Saturday Sep 24 2016.
It will probably start at 15:00 GMT and end at 00:00 GMT but we can extend the timing
if there are enough people signing up.

Stream ops please respond if you able to help switch and what time range you are available.
No really, it would be nice to have some more people to help with switching duties.

As always, if you are interested in performing, please copy/paste this Sign-Up template and post in this thread:

1. Preferred Start Time (Please use GMT/Military Time):
2. Set Length (30 or 60 minutes):
3. Artist Name (For displaying on the poster):
4. Chat Name (if different from artist/forum name):
5. Location (City/State/Country - Optional):
6. Description (Style/Genre/Equipment, etc. - Optional):
7. Website Address:
8. Anything else you like to mention:

For reference, this clock could be useful:

First Time Streamers Please Read:

Please review the Electro Music Copyright Policy

Please note: "Preferred Start Time". We will do the best that we can to accommodate people to their requested times. However, please be flexible because this event will have European and American musicians in many different time zones. Time slots will be on a semi-"first come-first served" basis. Furthermore, please post your time in GMT. The handy clock should make it simple. However, we do use military/24 hour time. It will undoubtedly be an international event and GMT is the only way to coordinate such events.

As in the past, the chat room will serve as an invaluable communication tool for set up, streaming, and connecting to those listening....and it's just a lot of silly fun! I suggest participants get familiar with it in advance, if you aren't already.

If you want a recording of your set, it would be prudent to record your own set, rather than depend on others. Accidents and mistakes happen...especially in this format. There are many ways to record your set, either thru the stream app or record your stream from your mixer on the signal path to the computer.

Performers MUST stream at 128 kbps, 44.1 kHz , stereo.
more info about broadcasting on radio.electro-music.com can be found here.

It is IMPERATIVE that everyone test their connections before we start streaming. At least 24 hours before but sooner is preferred. Sorry, but we can not guarantee that musicians will be allowed to stream if you do not test 24 hours before hand. Not only does it delay the schedule, but causes unneeded stress on performer, server operator, and audience during performance time. Join the chat room for testing and help setting up.

My son Jeremy and I are going to open our first batch of home recipe, home brewed ginger beer this Saturday. Musically, we run in parallel tracks rather than converging ones. We did play the NYE 2007-08 webcast together (Chess-Generates-Music), and he helped me to premier the first electro-music zero input mixer collaboration with State Machine & John Driscoll in 2012.

Jeremy has agreed to jam with me this Saturday and we will record the result and edit it down to at least 30 minutes this coming Saturday the 17th. I will stream that the 24th. It could go to 60 minutes. He plays killer FX-box-laden electric guitar in our basement every week or two. I plan to set up all 3 ZIMs in the basement on Friday, and I was working out a new swamp-timbre delay set of patches on the electronic banjo last night. I can't get him on the 24th, but I can get him this Saturday, and so there it is. He actually initiated my work in the planetarium as my university student. The Ginger Beer Session! Let's assume 30 minutes, and if it could go to 60, I'll ask.

Jeremy Parson and I improvised for about 42 minutes yesterday. I have cut out the first 12 minutes, which were mostly warmup / fishing around, adjusted levels, and it's in the can, all improvised music for a 30 minute equinox set. Cool

Jeremy played and Aria Thor Sound 400 electric guitar with a bunch of FX kick boxes bolted to a board, and I played my 3 zero-input mixers with no software processing. We used an assortment of 4 microphones, 3 at the amplifiers and one across the room, to record the session at a sampling rate of 48k. Photos below by Linda Parson.

Lots of evening meetings this week, very busy. Thanks to Jan, Dr. Steve and PHOBoS for the Chat and port check today. Port 8088 is tested and ready to go! Very Happy

Photos of The Ginger Beer Session below by Linda Parson, 17 September 2016. We opened our first batch of home-brew ginger beer, and it really turned out well. Smile

Not sweet, good alcohol content, and the ginger taste is not overpowering. Nice, clear, and bubbly. Excellent inspiration for improvising music.

Mine now has 2 mixers and the usual Quad FX and added a V-Verb from Behringer which has nice delay and reverb FX.

I'll update the schedule tomorrow with the current signup (looks like it is going to be a small event but maybe we could do a jam)
and I'll try to make a banner/poster too, but if anyone else wants to do this, go ahead.

Agnes

I'd like to suggest that any live streaming event or concert, or musical event be "advertised" or announced on both the Front Page and on the Streaming Radio page. That way newbies will see it at first glance. Just because us oldies know when to expect one, and where to look for the info, doesn't mean that a newbie would. Smile

PHOBoS · Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2016 6:25 pm Post subject:

That's actually what the banner and the poster are for. The banner will appear at the top of each page and the poster
on the radiopage and/or frontpage. I was planning on doing it earlier but didn't get to it and didn't have any time today.

EdisonRex · Posted: Wed Sep 21, 2016 5:36 am Post subject:

I did post this event on the Facebook page for radio.electro-music.com.

That gets a lot of views.
