Short notice, but I thought it was a good time return to the Deluge for a breakout session.So grab some strong coffee and join us.Even if you are not in the market for a Deluge you might find some of the concepts in the workflow interesting and inspiring. It's an amazing box.OVERVIEWIn this event we'll be taking a closer look at the Synthstrom Deluge. This will be more of an open "breakout" format with open discussion and Q & A. So this is not a course on the Deluge but more of an event where you can see how people are using it.For those interested in Deluge but don't have one... I'll kick things off with a brief overview of what the Deluge and what makes it unique.We'll then review what's new in 4.0.If you have a Deluge and want to play a few fun patterns you've created for the group, just make sure you google around to figure out how to do music from zoom.

You can learn more about this here https://droneday.org/.This being the case I thought it would be fun to string together a series of Rocky Mountain Synthesizer Meet events culminating in a live streaming YouTube event on May 28th with pre-recorded videos by members. The first event in March (on Zoom) will help you get your creative juices flowing with a talk on using granular synthesis for drone performances using an inexpensive and multiplatform instrument. The second event in April (on Zoom) will offer tips on how to pre-record and produce videos that are livestream-ready.The third event in May (YouTube) will be a public livestream concert where we will watch submitted videos and participate via chat.For March I'll be doing a talk on the amazing Spacecraft App / Plugin. This will help you get your creative juices flowing for Drone Day in May as well as offer a look at granular synthesis using an inexpensive and multiplatform instrument.It was a fav of our late friend Dino J.A. Deane who had been actively working with the developer and helped design the live sampling workflow. So, focusing on this app will help us celebrate Dino's legacy.Agenda:- Welcome & Announcements- Member Announcements on upcoming projects and events- Presentation on Spacecraft- Breakout Intros- Socializing- Wrap Register Now View Event → Feb 10 Online Event with Zoom RMSM Event #115 - Workflow: Going from Idea to Finished Track Thursday, February 10, 2022 7:00 PM 8:00 PM Google Calendar ICS Register Now Overview: In this Zoom event, we’ll be exploring member workflows related to turning ideas into releases and performances.Welcome & Announcements: RMSM & member announcements on upcoming projects and events.Presentations: Mark Mosher and Brian Horsfield (aka The Aefonic) will break the ice with two brief presentations on some of their recent projects using hybrid workflows.Roundtable: Then Mark will MC a roundtable where attendees can share their workflow challenges and tips using their rigs to create music and get that music performance ready.Breakouts: Then we’ll do a short breakout session moving into smaller rooms so you can get to know some members better.
