- Producers Meetup - Ableton DaySoul Graffiti Productions, Oakland, CA
On the heels of the amazingly successful Beer and Beats Meetup that we run every week, we're now running an Ableton / DAW focused music-sharing/hangout/support group for all Ableton lovers out there. Don't worry: everyone at all levels of experience is welcome to join. The main goal of our meetup is to check out your DAW projects and geek out on production techniques. If you want to learn or share your knowledge, this is the place for you!
The first hour of the meetup is to network and to socialize with other local musicians.
The rest of the meetup is usually sharing of projects we are working and deep diving into production.
Sometimes we do a timed production challenge / sample flip or collab session.
You're encouraged to bring your own laptop and headphones to work on some music. Hopefully, you'll create some magic you can show us while you're there. We often hang out beyond the meetup, so if you're in the groove you can continue jamming!
Oh, and the event is free and you're welcome to BYOB. - Beer & BeatsAnthem Music Academy, Emeryville, CA
