Hi, At a local church in Bath, I am planning a series of seminars on Linux audio as they want to enable people to produce/record/master/mix without spending exhorbitant amounts. I have many ideas on what I want to talk about, but could use some advice. So far I have planned (all plans can change with suitable advice): 1: Showcase: Linux, IP Kubuntu studio, emphasising its worth as an OS in its own right and doing brief demonstrations of Rosegarden, Ardour, Hydrogen, LMMS, zynaddsubfx, specimen. [The idea is to show Linux is actually worth installing, very competent and can be very easy to set up and use, and the music software is _very competent) 2: Jack and Rosegarden. Using Soundfonts. Also relation to Muse. 3: Synths: Linked into Rosegarden stuff -- Specimen, Zynaddsubfx, AMSynth, fluidsynth. Driving synths via other programs (RG, Muse, Seq24) 4: Plugins and mastering: LADPSA, JAMIN, Ardour. 5: Putting it all together. Showcase of creating a track, mixing, mastering, fx, recording, burning to CD. What are people's thoughts? If this is genuinely naive, I apologise. I've only my experience to go on and I really want (helpful) criticism..
