I spent yesterday trying to absorb more information than my brain can handle. Spot dispenses real facts about Vegas, DVD Architect, Microphones, Sound cards and interfaces, computer hardware, operating systems, plug ins, MPEG encoding, and many others for hours on end. Gary Kliener added his expertise on these subjects as well. The value of the VASST seminar is tremendous.
I have some suggestion that I didn’t think to add to my comment card. I would like to see a more narrowly focused seminar. I know that this can be a problem in attracting the required number of attendees. The narrower the topic the fewer people that will attend. But I would like more depth on many subjects. Several times the comment came up that we could spend days on one topic. Well that is what I would like to do. Mixing for surround needs much more discussion. Do you mix a 5.1 track that will downmix well to stereo, or do you create two different mixes one 5.1 and the other stereo so that you have the best for each. There would be reasons for both choices. I would love to spend a day or two working the surround sound question. There are so many possible topics both for video and audio.
The VASST program is terrific. Please do more. For anyone interested in seminars these are great learning tools. My thanks to VASST, Spot, Gary, Mannie, Sony and all involved for a really great day. I recommend these programs to anyone who is serious about Vegas.
