i have just installed a JDK here for my studies, it's pretty
trivial.
so the box i bring will have it already.

it seems nicola cannot come for personal but very compelling and
actually rather joyful reasons that have to do with, ahem, fork()ing
in the biological sense ;)
he wrote to me some time back in february when i was trying to talk
people into providing demo pieces.

i could bring a studio large diaphragm condenser if anyone wants to
demonstrate sampling.
will need a phantom-powered console. won't bring mine, it's 32:8:2
and installed :(
if needed, i'll bring audio cabling, adaptors and soldering tools
(my p.a. first aid kit).
i can get two 15/3 with amping, but i'd have to haul them all
through the country, so we might be better of renting stuff.

does anyone have a hammerfall card ?
it's probably the best choice for ardour, because that's what paul
uses and debugs. i'm trying on an SBLIVE, and the whole stuff is
horribly unstable, but i have trouble debugging it or even getting a
decent trace.
i have received a lot of help from paul already, so i might be able
to guide you around the most common pitfalls, and for the hard part
there is ardour-dev. mail me in private when you start compiling.

yes, but. large but.
to get the concept across, it's fine, but it lacks a lot of sex
appeal on a 2-channel card. :)
