SUMMARY:Gain Sharing Automixing Moves From Secret Weapon to Mainstream
DESCRIPTION:Dan Dugan demonstrated a prototype adaptive threshold automatic microphone mixer at the New York AES convention in 1974. Subsequently he demonstrated a prototype of gain sharing automixing at the AES in Los Angeles. Forty years later\, gain sharing automixing is offered as a feature by Avid\, Calrec\, Protec Audio\, SSL\, Studer\, Yamaha\, and Waves. Applications range from the ubiquitous panel discussions at conferences to presidential campaign debates and World Cup commentary. Dugan will outline his development process\, explain the math\, and demonstrate the performance of his popular algorithm. \nMeeting Location:\nThe Art Institute of California – San Francisco 10UN Civic Center Plaza Room 410. San Francisco\, CA. 94102 \nCheck in with security and take the elevator to the 4th floor. Then go right until you reach the end of the hall.

SUMMARY:Roger Linn - LinnStrument Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Roger Linn will he is demonstrating his forthcoming LinnStrument\, a new human interface for expressive music performance that captures the continuous pressure\, X position and Y position of each touch\, independently and polyphonically\, thereby permitting each finger to simultaneously control a note’s loudness\, pitch and timbre. \nAbout the Speaker \nRoger Linn is a creator of electronic music products\, including the first sampled-sound drum machine\, the 1979 LM-1 Drum Computer\, as well as the LinnDrum drum machine\, both used on countless hit recordings during the 1990s. He later designed the Akai MPC sampling drum machines\, considered a major influence in hip hop music production\, and the AdrenaLinn beat-synced filter effects processors for guitar.

SUMMARY:Sweet Blues: A Film About Michael Bloomfield
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Ted Leyhe\, Cinematographer and Co-Producer of Sweet Blues will be present for a Q&A immediately following the film. \nRefreshments and mixing at 7:00 PM in DreamWorks Cafeteria\nNo food or drink will be allowed in the theater. \nRSVP Required: Password for Registration: mb214 RSVP > \nAbout the Film:\nThe new documentary film Sweet Blues focuses on the musical career of legendary guitarist Michael Bloomfield. A musical prodigy\, the Chicago native honed his unique guitar style by playing Southside clubs while in his teens\, with B.B. King\, Muddy Waters\, Howlin’ Wolf and many others. Described by Bob Dylan as the\, “Best guitar player I ever heard\,” Bloomfield’s contributions to Dylan’s Highway 61 Revisited launched Dylan’s transition from a folk music to electric rock and roll\, and moved rock guitar to the forefront\, influencing many of the best known guitar players today. \nBloomfield’s move to the bay area helped shape the late 60s San Francisco music scene. Included are interviews on Bloomfield from the guitaristís friends and fellow musicians\, many who are local luminaries like Bill Graham\, Carlos Santana\, and Bob Weir. The film’s vintage concert footage and audio interviews of Bloomfield\, are superbly mixed by Berkeley Sound Artists’ James LeBrecth\, whose previous work includes Village Music: The Last of the Great Record Stores\, which was shown at our December 2012 meeting. \nThe film was a 25 year project from director Bob Sarles\, veteran of many rock documentaries\, and premiered at the Mill Valley Film Festival in October 2013. On dvd\, it’s part of a new 4-disc Bloomfield box set\, released by Sony in February 2014. \nRunning Time: 57 minutes
