March Equinox 2018 live streaming event

PHOBoS · Last edited by PHOBoS on Sun May 20, 2018 6:07 am; edited 7 times in total

Calendar Event: March 24, 2018

It's time to get ready for another celestial celebration: The March Equinox.
party!

The event will be on electro-music radio on Saturday March 24th 2018.
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'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:

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.

8. Anything else you like to mention: I usually use some kind of keyboard controller [usb/midi] sometimes more that one, sometimes other usb/midi controllers usually controlling one or more sound module, sometimes softsynths--usually an on-the-fly improv (where anything can go wrong) with a pre-seleted pallet of sounds/textures/etc. and sometimes pre-selected notes and controller settings. Generally I layer pre-seleted sounds on consecutive midi channels from the keyboard and tweak knobs and sliders and maybe press some trigger buttons.

6. Description (Style/Genre/Equipment, etc. - Optional): something with dancing electrons and quantum mirrors I think, but there is no such thing as free will in my art .. the art is free tho .. and I will let it move freely.. at least as long as my bag of known tricks is leaky enough, and otherwise it will be a repetition of things known .. we'll have to see, you and me, and face it :-)
7. Website Address: http://www.bluehell.nl
8. Anything else you like to mention: yeah, great :-) I can switch too! Title might be something lie .. erm hiding as a fake .. but I'd feel so shared then and liked .. so not sure yet. Did I say lie .. djeez .. Freudian rewriting I guess.

I plan to make up a MIDI dataset on which my graduate students will do time-series data analysis. I'll see if I can make that generate something good. Maybe a few new field samples. Or no-input mixer. A sonic collage, perhaps.

Just to confirm I'm OK to do my slot, will try to do a test of streaming Friday night

good to know Jez Smile

I closed the signup but if anyone else does want to sign up it can be added at the beginning or end
of the schedule or in agreement with other performers. So the current timeslots are final.

have fun!
