Calendar Event: March 19, 2016

It is almost that time of the year again when rabbits start laying eggs and chicks start falling from the trees, oh wait,..that's easter.
Anyway, MARCH EQUINOX EVENT is coming up! party!

The event will be on electro-music radio on Saturday March 19, 2016.
It will probably start at 15:00 GMT and end at 00:00 GMT but we can extend the timing
if we have enough people signing up, so let's see if we can make it to 24 hours! Laughing

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.

Since this event happens after daylight savings time, the GMT translator is off by one hour, right?

Blue Hell · Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2016 6:23 am Post subject:

Depends on what GMT translator you mean.

The real time running clock, as posted in the first message here, looks at the current time .. so that could be considered to be an hour off.

The schedule on the events page should show correct times, as that one looks at the date too.

What? Are we going to lose an hour this coming weekend? I am not ready; it used to be in April. Uhoh. I hope it didn't happen this past weekend!!!

UPDATE:
PHOOEY!!!!! It IS this coming weekend in the US--March 13th. And I have just started getting used to it being light when I wake up. Sad

Anyhow, thanks for being on top of the time change Greg--even if it was a rude awakening.

Hmmm. Maybe one of the candidates can get elected by vowing to change it back to April--after all, it was changed to accommodate big businesses, not the middle class--something about businesses saving money or something like that, I think--maybe possibly . . . .

Found out the schedule for the workshop I'm going to. It'll be earlier in the day. I'm happy to grab 30 minutes sometime after Twyndyllyngs! Would be nice to go on late for once. Smile

Antimon · Posted: Thu Mar 10, 2016 1:04 pm Post subject:

Ok PHOBoS pointed out in the chat that there are loads of gaps before Twyndyllyngs - I only looked quickly at Blue Hell's poster. I can take the slot just before Twyndyllyngs if that's ok!

PHOBoS · Posted: Thu Mar 10, 2016 1:07 pm Post subject:

great

. I added it to the schedule.

rdorsche · Posted: Sat Mar 12, 2016 12:54 am Post subject:

well shoot, if this is really this thin of a schedule, sign me up for an hour.

I'll do 30 minutes "constructed," 30 minutes noodling.
