If you're in the Seattle area please stop by the University Village Apple Store and join us form 7:00 - 8:30 pm, Wednesday December 6th. Guest presenter John Silverman will be presenting an overview of beatmaking techniques that he calls a "round trip" - it's a way that one can re- use and re-mangle beats from Ultrabeat, the EXS, Apple Loops, and back again, over and over to create his/her own personal libraries of material. Jam Packs to be given away (generously provided by Apple). Link to Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/retail/universityvillage/week/20061203.html I think this one will be filmed - hope to add to what Jonathan Perl has started regarding documenting and posting video of meetings for other users to view. Please contact me off-list with questions. Doug
