so, i'm considering doing a live tutorial series focused around the DS-10.
the specific format and logistics of the series are details i'm still kicking around in my head, but the general idea is that i would do a live ustream broadcast or something similar for a couple of hours at a time, and answering realtime or predetermined questions where appropriate. i'd have my webcam setup to show the DS-10 at all times, to show you what i'm up to.
this series would be intended for people who were/are interested in composing for it, and already have decent enough compositional ability, but have trouble dealing with the interface or its limitations. it's not meant for people who are just interested in making random noise - you don't need tutorials for that.
some of the things i might do:
- talk about sound design. maybe in the form of, you guys suggest a sound and i'll try to make it.
- explore some options for working around the DS-10's limitations
- dissect one of the tunes i've already made
- delving into the finer points of composition.
- try to make a whole song from start to finish using feedback from viewers (this might open a giant can of worms yeah but it might be fun)
- if possible, walk someone else through the process of starting a new song (anyone have any ideas as to how this would work logistically? skype video perhaps?)
i expect the value of these tutorials would mainly be in sharing my thought process and decision-making while creating music with the DS-10.
anyway, just wanted to gauge the overall interest and see if there were any other considerations i had to keep in mind in terms of streaming / timezones / availability of potential participants..

i think i would be fun to explore how streaming might be useful to the chip community.
