Introduction

This group is for anyone who likes producing electronic music using software, and/or wishes to learn new production skills, other software products, find out about various plug-ins, and take their mixes to the next level.

There is no particular skill requirement to join the group. However if you are a beginner, we recommend you at least try a demo version of a popular DAW software package, and watch some free tutorials on youtube before coming to your first meeting.

We mostly concentrate on Ableton Live and various plug-ins but we’re open to other DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) software, e.g. Logic, Cubase, Sonar, Reason, etc. PC or Mac – it doesn’t matter.

Once you join, check out the “Pages” section with useful information, e.g. links to plug-ins we use, tutorial videos, etc.

 

Structure of Our Events

We usually have a couple of presenters each time showing various techniques that most producers could benefit from. The presentations last 10-20 minutes each, plus Q&A. After that, it’s a free-form forum for everyone to chat, exchange ideas, contact info, etc.


Membership

Membership is free. However, there will be a small (e.g. $10) fee per event to cover the room/equipment rental.
