Greetings all,
Do we have list of the material which will be at Sound Expo? There was
this discussion about the power supply 2 weeks ago, but I didn't find a
complete list of the material.
I personally plan to bring a PC laptop + an RME Hamerfall, but I won't
be able to bring some monitors. Will we have mixer + monitors? I will
also bring a pair of headphones. I can also manage to bring a small MIDI
keyboard (2 octaves + knobs) but if somebody else already bring one it
is maybe enough (and I won't need to bring it in the plane).
About the demos, is there a global strategie? Will we run one computer
with the differents software installed on it, or do we run several
computers to show each software (our AGNULA case is slightly different
as we don't show a specific software but a global distribution). The
second solution raise the problem of space, power supply, acoustic level
and/or confusion.
Let me know if all of this has already been discuted.
best,
damien
Hi Damien,

That's fine - as long as you've got somewhere to stay!

From my experience of travelling across London you will be arriving at
your hotel quite late. It might be best for you if we meet at the
Expo on the Tuesday morning before it opens. I suggest you call me on
0770 922 9254 and I'll meet you at the door with your badge.

Yes indeed!

Gatwick is quite far to the south of the city and Wembley is in the
north-west. Your best bet is probably to get a train into central
London, then take whichever train or underground line that your hotel
recommends (there are a number of stations in that area).

I get press releases and other news sent to me every day, thanks to an agreement
my employer has with Factiva, who get their press releases from PR Newswire
(http://www.prnewswire.com/). This includes plenty of Linux news, big and
small, so I was thinking that LinuxAudio could take advantage of this to get
their important news out, e.g. the Sounds Expo visit next week.
The good news is that any individual or organization can register with them and
distribute their press releases globally: the bad news is that it costs $125 a
year to do so. So, this is sonething to keep in mind for the future, perhaps.
Thanks,

Hi all.
I seem to remember someone proposed to wear some kind on standardized
T-Shirts at the GNU/Linux Audio Centre (Sounds Expo 2004). Did you
reach any definitive conclusion on it?
We are currently evaluating some options for the AGNULA T-Shirts and
caps, and if we manage to have it I'd like to ask Damien if he could
wear it during the event.
bye,
andrea

The question is - why having dozens of sites with linuxaudio unrelated names
such as djcj.org or linuxaudiobase.org if you can have all under linuxaudio.org?
Linux Audio developers
Linux Audio users
Linux Audio advocates
Linux Audio projects
Linux Audio applications
Linux Audio documentation
Linux Audio tutorials
Linux Audio mailing lists
Linux Audio forums
Linux Audio news
Linux Audio organisation
Linux Audio you name it
Linux Audio *
Linux Audio.
You can't have a better promotion than having a domain name with exactly that name -
Linux Audio.

I have appended a call issued by Jean-François Junger, European Commission,
DG Information Society which might be interesting for linuxaudio.org

Hi,
I just thought I send the list this link to a document written by Andy
Wingo about GStreamer and where we stand in regards to pro-audio.
The doc is a mix of where we are/what we are focusing on.
http://freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gstreamer/gstreamer/docs/random/…
Thought it might be of a little general interest,
Christian
So I'm in my local music shop, which mostly sells guitars and amps and
so on. I ask if they would like to have some Sounds Expo flyers on
the counter, and mention that I'm going to be there myself on one of
the stands (by way of explanation).
The shop assistant asks which stand, I say the GNU/Linux Audio Centre.
The shop assistant replies 'I'll come to see that - I'm writing some
plugins for Brahms'.
Now that has never happened to me in a music shop before. Or anywhere
outside a Linux event, come to think of it. I see that as a positive
sign!
Cheers
Daniel

I'll do that as soon as we have a working logo.
