March Equinox 2021 live streaming event

[PHOBoS]

Calendar Event: March 20, 2021

---

There are a couple of weeks left but february always tricks me into thinking there is more time, so let's get ready for the March Equinox event.



This event will be on electro-music radio on Saturday March 20, 2021.
It will start somewhere around 15:00 GMT and end whenever it is over depending on the number of participants.

Stream ops please respond if you're able to help switch and what time range you are available. I am not sure how much time I have
for organizing but I'll probably be able to do some switching. So if someone would like to help out with the organisation of this event
(keeping an eye on this thread, update the wiki and whatever else is needed) that would be most welcome.

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):

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.[/quote]
