Very interesting! 

However, would it not make more sense to present something that is more 
accessible and affordable to the majority of users such as JSonar? Sonar is 
made accessible with this equally usable and equally powerful set of scripts 
with the benefit that these are free and open-source with a community that from 
outside observation seems much more active than that of the CakeTalking one. 

Personally, I have used Sonar with JSonar however due to my complete lack of 
experience with this type of application I had absolutely no idea where to 
start to learn.  This workshop would be of particular interest to me but for 
the price tag associated with CakeTalking. 

That said,  I do commend your initiative for organizing these workshops and 
hope you take this suggestion on board for future events.

Subject: [vicsireland] Music workshops - July 2009

Dear all,

Please find details of two exciting music workshops below.  If you are
interested in attending please contact me.

Kind Regards,

Stuart.

********************

NCBI's Rehabilitation Training Centre in conjunction with Dancing Dots are
delighted to announce details of two music workshops on Friday 10th July.
If you are a Vision Impaired musician, a teacher, music educator, a producer
of accessible music or just someone who wants to know more, then these
workshops are not to be missed!

Workshop 1.  Friday 10th July from 10:00 to 12 noon.

Producing High Quality Braille Music and Print Scores with GOODFEEL and Lime
Aloud.  Find out how to use the power of the GOODFEEL Braille Music
Translator in conjunction with Lime music notation software, SharpEye music
scanning software and the extremely impressive Lime Aloud access method,
enabling totally blind musicians to read notation and listen to print scores
on-the-fly.  Automatically convert print music notation into the equivalent
braille music without being a braille specialist.  Blind musicians can now
enter, revise and print their musical compositions using Lime Aloud.

Workshop 2.  Friday 10th July from 2:00 to 4:00.

Using SONAR with Dancing Dots' 'CakeTalking for SONAR'.  Learn how to
record, mix and master a professional audio production from start to finish.
The presenter will mix a wide range of synthetic instrumental sounds
triggered by an electronic musical keyboard with acoustic vocals and
instruments recorded with a microphone. 

Admission is free but reservations required.  To book a place for either or
both workshops please contact Stuart Lawler at the rehabilitation training
centre on 018821961 or email stuart.lawler@xxxxxxxx
