There’s been interest in a talk about about orchestration with MIDI and softsynths for a long time. Now we actually have somone awesome enough to give that talk. And “awesome” is an understatement. Our guest will be Dr. Andrea Pejrolo, composer, producer, author, and Berklee professor. In his talk, Andrea will discuss in depth how to create great orchestral productions using affordable options such as Kontakt, Philarmonik, Garritan and other libraries. Use advanced sequencing techniques and hybrid production strategies in order to bring your virtual ensemble to life! Andrea’s presentation will be targeted to a wide audience from beginners to advanced users.

 

Where: Our usual digs in Downtown Crossing (address will be in your confirmation email).

When: February 28. Doors open at 6:30 for mingling and pizza. Presentation starts at 7. Please be on time, since if you come late, the doors will be locked, and someone will have to go downstairs to let you in.
