June Solstice 2017 live streaming event

PHOBoS · Last edited by PHOBoS on Sat Jun 24, 2017 8:06 am; edited 7 times in total

It's almost summer (or winter depending where you live) and as usual we'll be celebrating the solstice with a live streaming event.

The event will be on electro-music radio on Saturday June 24th 2017.
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.

Apparently june 24th is also international fairy day (only found out there is such a thing yesterday) so a good reason to make it
joyous, sparkly (I am looking at you Dave Wink

) and with an extra pinch of magic.

Stream ops please respond if you're 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:

*a time window would also be very helpful but I will try my best to give everyone their prefered time slot.
For reference, this clock could be useful:

I will update the schedule along the way and it can be found at the wiki page for this event.

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.

Photo of my two great-nephews (in both senses of the word great) Ben and Nate, brothers, who contributed tracks to the zero-input mixer piece that I will perform next Saturday, taking a ZIM workshop with me on May 30 and June 1 respectively. I mixed their sessions and one of mine into a 30-minute piece, over which I will add a layer of sound at performance time on my wife Linda's Christmas present, an Allen & Heath ZED 12 FX mixer, with a Mod Core Nux stereo fx box in the feedback path that my son Jeremy gave me, also for Christmas. It's the debut of the ZED and the Mod Core, so, Merry Christmas.

Thanks, Stefan, for checking port 8088 for me. thanks

I'm all set to go.

If my stream operator posts a photo on the radio page during my set, please use the pic with Ben and Nate. They'll be checking out the webcast for the first time, from northern Arizona. Cool

Hellooo,
I have seen that my name has been added to the playlist Smile

cool !
Just one quesiton, it seems that there could be some place for me to do 60' ?
tell me if I can do so Smile

Cheers! I am looking forward to playing on the 24 !

PHOBoS

@ Al Baldwin: would 15:00 (GMT) work for you ?
It would be helpful to close a gap in the schedule (unless we have some more signups)

@ chupchups: I have scheduled you for 60 minutes, or do you want to play another set ?

chupchups · Posted: Sun Jun 18, 2017 11:57 am Post subject:

@PHOBoS , it's perfect like that Smile

so I will play one hour at the time you set (for me 18:00 in france).

Big thx !!!
