This year's student conference will feature over 1,000 students playing an original composition on the MLTI devices. Using GarageBand (recording software included on the image), students will come to the session having already created their own sampled keyboard - one that they will play as a group along with 1000 other musicians!
The samples created will include an octave of pitched musical notes and five localized sound effects that will be incorporated in the piece. MLTI staff will capture the culminating performance and release audio and video to the public shortly after the performance.
Now let's be honest - if you're a musician, you probably understand all this...
But... If you are not a musician - don't worry - there will be plenty of help available to make sure everyone can arrive at the event ready to go. Read below for more information on how to get prepped to be part of this exciting event, as over 1,000 Maine people join together to make music!
Oh, one more thing - there will be some great professional and amateur Maine musicians involved - but we can't release details just now as they are still being worked out!
Keyboard Creation Resources
Creating your sampled keyboard is pretty straightforward. Simply follow the instructions in the following short videos and you are on your way.
For the full experience, the keyboards you created will be used. However, they do not need to be loaded before the Uber Session as we will using a stock sound for the group performance. This will allow you to fully participate in the world premier for over 1000 players.
