SUMMARY:May Listening Party
DESCRIPTION:  \nOur last listening party at Coast Mastering was so popular\, we’re repeating it on Monday\, May 2\, again at Michael Romanowski and Piper Payne’s new location at the Zaentz Media Center in Berkeley. There are two rooms\, stereo and surround sound\, where we’ll listen and discuss your projects. \nYou should bring a stereo or surround recording to play: it can be something you’ve previously done or a work in progress. This is a good opportunity to get feedback if you want or just share your work with other audio engineers. By keeping the attendance small\, we should have time to play a selection from all attendees. Space is limited\, the last one filled up fast. \nLimited tickets available at http://aeslisten.bpt.me/ with the password: Coast 52  \nSchedule: \n7:00pm Mixer with light refreshments\n7:30pm Begin listening \nNote: The entry to Coast Mastering is on the Parker Street side of the building. \nStreet parking recommended\, as the parking lot across the street gets locked at 9pm. Please do not park in the Fantasy Studios/Zaentz Media Center parking lot.

SUMMARY:East Lake Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:The San Francisco Audio Engineering Society section is sponsoring two workshops on audio production at the Eastlake Music Festival on Saturday\, May 28th. The Eastlake Music Festival is a not-for-profit free festival on the shore of Lake Merritt in Oakland\, open to all ages. This year’s musical line-up includes Picture Atlantic\, David Gans\, Bear Lincoln\, Sal’s Greenhouse\, David Harness\, Jamming Nachos\, Hip Hop for Change and Tumbledown House. \nNote: We’ve been offered an AES information table in the Music Maker Area at the Eastlake Music Festival on Saturday\, in downtown Oakland\, if we can get some help from our members to cover that.  If you have an hour or two to help out between noon and 6pm\, email us: tickets@aessf.org \n\nDavid Bowles\n Minimalist Miking – Authenticity or Cop-Out?\n1:00 pm-1:30 pm\nClassically-trained recording engineers confront this question often: we are taught orthodox stereo-pair only techniques\, yet these philosophies were derived with ‘traditional’ classical music in mind as long as 80 years ago! Though the result desired is different than a pop or soundtrack recording\, there are times the two approaches need to be blended. Other factors to consider are studio vs. concert hall; dry vs. wet acoustic space; large vs. small ensemble; ‘loud’ vs. ‘soft’ artists\, and finally the content of the musical composition itself. \nChristopher Scott Cooper\nEngineering Live Sound: Setup & Issues\n1:45 pm-2:30 pm\nA brief discussion of live sound setups\, the resultant issues to be aware of\, and how to resolve given issues with what you have. There many uncontrollable aspects when providing sound for events\, bands\, or even something seemingly simple as a speaker at a podium. \nChristopher will discuss many steps one can take to avoid issues before they start\, and methods to solve unexpected issues even in a simple setup.\n\nMore Happenings in the Music Maker Area:\n\nOakland Symphony – Instrument “Petting Zoo” 2-5pm\nToday’s Future Sound – Intro to Digital Music Production noon-6pm\nOakland Mind – The Art of 16 Bars: Mental Clarity through Hip Hop\nTurf Inc. – Dance Area nearby\, tentative dance workshop\nOpen Mic stage\, tentatively 4-6pm\nOther Tentative Workshops to be confirmed \n\nThe Music Maker area is in the southeast corner of the Kaiser Convention Center Lot. \n \n  \nSpeaker Bios:\n\nDavid Bowles\nDavid v.R Bowles formed Swineshead Productions\, LLC as a classical recording production company in 1995. His recordings have been GRAMMY-nominated (Classical – Best Orchestral Performance) and won the “Classical Orchestral Album” prize (Just Plain Folks Awards). Other Bowles-produced and engineered releases have been named “Record of the Month – Editor’s Choice” from Gramophone Magazine\, MusicWeb International and Opera News; “Record of the Year” from the New York Times (three times)\, the New Yorker\, American Record Guide\, Miami Clásica and Classical Candour. Several of these are available as high-resolution paid downloads from Naxos. \nIn collaboration with New York University’s Music Technology programme at Steinhardt School of Music\, Mr. Bowles is pursuing research in height channel recording. He has given a paper on his “Bowles array”(a height channel microphone technique) at AES conventions in New York and São Paulo\, both followed by 9.1 channel playbacks. \nAs an educator\, Mr. Bowles is a guest lecturer for Tonmeister programmes at New York University (Steinhardt School of Music)\, the Royal Danish Academy of Music\, the Peabody Recording Arts and Sciences (John Hopkins University) and the Banff Centre. He was Visiting Professor of Recording Arts at Indiana University’s Jacobs School. \nMr. Bowles is a member of the AES (Audio Engineering Society)\, was on the Board of Governors\, served on convention committees\, and the committee of the San Francisco AES section. He is a member of NARAS (National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences) Producers & Engineers Wing and SPARS (Society of Professional Audio Recording Services). \n  \n\nChristopher Scott Cooper\nIf it involves sound\, Chris has probably done it. A lifelong musician with over 30 years as an audio engineer/producer. Currently teaching live sound and studio production at Cogswell Technical College. His education in music composition\, years of touring and performing\, many hours sitting behind the desk both in studio and out on the road has provided a wealth of experience to pull from. In addition to Christopher’s live sound and recording work\, he’s done audio for games\, toys\, tv and film\, systems installs\, and is known for his trouble shooting abilities. \nTwelve years ago Christopher built Blue Seven Audio\, a high end professional recording studio tucked into a modest space that is both intimate and comfortable\, with full tracking and mixing capabilities. He continues to provide live sound services (FOH/monitor)\, consulting on studio design\, acoustics and live sound system installations.
