February 2020 MSP Audio Geeks meetup (in March!) - Wednesday 3/4

Post by audiochick » Fri Feb 14, 2020 1:16 pm

The February 2020 MSP Audio Geeks meetup will be on Wednesday, March 4th from 7-9pm at the Wedge Table, in their community room. Fellow audio geek and MAAT co-founder Oliver Masciarotte will be showcasing some of the MAAT plug-in roster for us.

A bit about Oliver:
A graduate of the Lowell Institute of MIT, Oliver A. Masciarotte has spent over 30 years immersed in the tech space, working on facilitation, marketing, and product development for clients such as Apple, Harper Collins, The Hit Factory, NASA Johnson, NPR, Pioneer, the San Francisco Symphony, Sony, WHYY and Universal. His writings include a book covering file–based music for the home and well over 100 articles in sundry trade publications. As an invited presenter at numerous trade conferences and member of the AES, SMPTE, PMI and DCS, he enjoys informing folks about technological best practices. These days, OMas is CMO and co–founder of MAAT Incorporated, a developer of pro audio hardware and software solutions.

From the MAAT website:
Once upon a time, a well respected mastering engineer had some sensible but unorthodox notions, and colleagues crazy enough to throw in with him…Thus was born the Pleasurize Music Foundation. Later in his career, that same guy decided to lift up the music community further by establishing the Mastering Academy…Those two enterprises formed the roots of MAAT; a dedication to quality, a desire to do good and a need to provide better sounding, easier to use tools and simpler workflows.

Invite your friends & join us for an evening of audio geekery! All are welcome to attend.

Please note that outside food & beverage is not allowed at the Wedge Table. We encourage you to support the Wedge Table by purchasing something from them.
