Straight from the live music capital, attendees at Austin’s SXSW show (March 16-25, 2005) will also get a taste of music technology. The Musician’s Hotel (www.musicianshotel.com), free to registered SXSW attendees, will bring together indie musicians and manufacturers for hands-on access to the technology and equipment used to create today’s music via demos, workshops, performances and Q&A sessions.
Sponsored by Mix, Electronic Musician and Remix magazines (with partners Mackie, Shure, Guitar Center, Apple, Alesis, Akai, Numark, Digidesign, M-Audio), this three-day music gear immersion will take place from March 16-18, from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. on the fourth floor of the Austin Hilton.
