Does anyone have:
a) a USB steering wheel
b) a MIDI keyboard (& a PC that'll talk to it)
c) digital video cameras (the higher quality the better, and the
more the better come to that; USB-capable ideally)
the first'll be good for showing off Torcs, the second for keeping any
musicians' attention, the third for recording Nandor's talk.
(I'm entirely happy with editing say three roughly-synced video streams
on the day while being shoulder-surfed then uploading to YouTube. I
tried, work's are all in Sydney.)
if there's *any* chance of any of these being there on Saturday, they'd
be grand.
as for other instruments, I'm thinking of packing a guitar + multi-
effects and bringing them in if there's anything to attach them to (and
anyone interested). can't commit to my laptop being any use: Audacity
will record single tracks to an empty file, but then refuses to even
recognise the microphone to record any more. (bizarre, that)
(this... also means that the demo Audacity file on the poster -- which,
yes, really *is* tracks from a Hammond through a Leslie, a guitar,
another guitar, a Hammond through a plain speaker, and a piano, all
recorded wild and independently, with a drum solo stolen from the web,
all sliced up randomly based on what looked pretty -- is a *truly*
hellish din, not helped at all by Audacity repeatedly crashing in horror
while trying to make it. I'll try not to play it too much.)
butting (mad science isn't just for Christmas, you know)
