Like last year we jam (playing spontaneous/improvised music for ourselves) together in small groups. In order to avoid a high noise level in the room we are going to use Headphones. We welcome every kind of Instrument from your laptop with a midi-controller, your E-Guitar, a Microphone to your modular synthesizer. If you want to participate please read the following carefully.
Please bring the following with you if you plan to participate: (if you don't bring the stuff you may be able to borrow it)
- Headphones
- Extension Chord/Power Strip if your stuff needs power
- Cable to send your tones to the other people. Small audio jack is the prefered method. Adapters are nice.
If you can, it is nice to bring Instruments for other people so people can participate without knowing about the jam before congress. It is probably a good Idea to write your name/a unique identifier on your stuff to avoid confusion.
I have designed a PCB that lets 5 People plug in their instruments and headphones via small audio jack. Only the Headphone volume can be adjusted on the board. Unfortunately the board is still in the mail and I don't know if it works at all. For this reason it would be nice if you could bring Equipment to route peoples audio signals to Headphones. Especially Mixers Multi-Headphone-Amplifiers and Cables to connect everything together would be appreciated.

The Date and Time is not set in stone. I have chosen the first Day to leave the possibility of a second Session open. The Time is after the Talks. Preferably the Room/Location should be empty afterwards so the jam can continue into the night (as it did last time).
I'm excited to see all of you :)
