Ok so I suggest only to bring Loudspeaker Monitors and Headphones, and
at most class compliant usb audio adapters (no firewire). Actually
builtin soundcards should suffice for demonstration purpose.
I have some thoughts on how to conduct the workshop:
-The workshop should take at maximum 1h 30mins.
-To kick off the workshop I will give a 15-20 min talk on my experiences
to get impressions from the professionals among you (I consider myself
an intermediate noob).
-The direction I want to go is aimed at the early stages in the mixing
process: gating tracks and removing frequencies (initial EQing) to first
clean the mix.
These are indispensable steps for any genre of music. Compressing should
also be adressed
-Later steps of mixing such as accentuating instruments/voices by EQing,
panning the stereo, adding reverb/other fx
should be left out/put at the end of the workshop as they are mostly
subjective and music/genre dependent
-Then those who wish to get tips on their mixes shall get time slots of
10mins on the speakers. This way 6-7 people can get tips on their mixes
(only initial mix), and show their stuff.
-At the same time others can use headphones to directly apply the tips
of the pro engineers
Discussions about recording and mastering should also be put at the end
What do you think?

Hi dear all lau-ers.
Last year LAC was amazing, let's see if I can make it this time.
This mini format could be grate to introduce a little more music
jamming and hands on workshops on recording, mixing, production, etc
as Gerald suggest.
Regards.

Hi David this is wonderfull. I'm in for it.
I could a do workshop on musik mixing and mastering with ardour.
Since I am not a professional, I would offer to bring some gear,
and invite people to come with their unfinished/finished projects.
The Idea is to gather people who have more knowledge/experience in
mixing then me, to help
others (that counts me :) ) on their current projects.
I can bring two sound cards (one usb, one firewire), Studio
monitors, two pairs of headphones.
What do you think?
