Ableton User Group – Saturday May 10th 12-3 pm, PAVED Arts Event Space
This workshop is open to non-members
This is the first meeting of a brand new group organized by PAVED, and made up of a small but passionate group of Live users from Saskatoon and around the province of Saskatchewan. Our goal is to meet regularly to share ideas, discuss current projects, and push each others art practice. While we represent a wide range of skill levels and tastes, we primarily focus on Ableton as a tool for audio art.
If you are interested in joining the group we are on Facebook

Featured gear will include a demo of our new fully upgraded video suite, a look at some of the new software available in the audio suite, and an overview of the new additions to our mobile equipment including our new Canon 70-D.

Day two we will digitize the images (or have them digitized) and take the images to print. Photoshop and the digital printer may be introduced and discussed on Saturday as well as workshopped on Sunday. Bring your camera (film or digital).
